Product Summary
BaciLock is a specialized consortium of beneficial bacterial species that secrete a complex of enzymes and bioactive compounds, providing broad-spectrum protection against insect pests and plant pathogens. These microbes work synergistically to disrupt insect development, inhibit pathogenic growth, and enhance plant immunity.
Mode of Action
The active bacterial strains in BaciLock exert their protective effects through multiple mechanisms:
- Enzymatic Degradation: The bacterial secretions break down the tough exoskeletons of insect pests, leading to their disintegration and suppression.
- Nutrient Competition: The beneficial microbes rapidly consume available nutrients in the plant environment, creating unfavorable conditions for pathogenic organisms and preventing their proliferation.
- Antibiosis & Induced Resistance: BaciLock produces antimicrobial compounds that inhibit the growth of pathogenic fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Additionally, it triggers systemic resistance in plants, enhancing their ability to fight off infections naturally.
- Root Colonization: Some bacterial strains promote root colonization, forming a protective biofilm that prevents root infections from soil-borne pathogens.
