Mode of Action:

Applied as a foliar spray, Serenade ASO protects crops against diseases such as Botrytis, Powdery mildew, Sclerotinia, Xanthomonas and Erwinia.

Applied at planting or through chemigation, Serenade ASO quickly builds a disease-protection zone around the seed or transplant. As the plant’s roots grow, the beneficial bacteria in Serenade ASO grow with them, expanding the disease protection zone and attaching themselves, like armor, to the roots of the plant.

Bacillus subtilis QST 713 induces systemic resistance which primes plants to defend themselves against pathogens as they grow.
