PREFERAL® WG is a biological insecticide that provides excellent control of whiteflies in protected crops of tomato, cucumber and ornamentals. It contains spores of the naturally-occurring strain of the fungus Isaria (=Paecilomyces) fumosoroseus strain Apopka 97 and is highly efficient against all whitefly stages (egg, larva, pupa and adult).
After germination of the spore, the fungus penetrates and proliferates inside its host.
A white-grey colored mycelium will be visible on the outside of the insect cadaver.
Under suboptimal conditions, the mycelium will not become visible; however, infected hosts are recognized as deformed insects which turn brown.
PREFERAL® WG contains 2 x 109 CFU/g and issupplied per 500 g in a plastic reclosable container.
Only available in Belgium, Netherlands, France, Norway, Sweden and Finland.
