Multiplex Metarhizium Insecticide - 1 kG

Multiplex Metarhizium produces several secondary metabolites acting as mycotoxins (Insecticidal toxins) .One such Mycotoxin such a destruxin E, which is considered as next generation insecticide against many pests like Aphids, Moths and Larve. Metarhizium anisopliae on contact of insect body, the infective spores start germinating and then the germ tube penetrate directly into the body of host insects. After entering into insect body fluid fungus proliferates profusely throughout the insect body and producing toxins metabolites which stops feeding of the insect and slowly paralyze and then kills the host insect.The whole process takes about 4 to 5 days.Once the insect gets killed, the body become very hard and afterwards fungus grows through the softer part of the cuticle with a thin layer of green mold, known as Green Muscardine disease.
