A Viricide

            Plant viruses are serious threat to crops and cause huge economic losses, in different crops like cereals, vegetables, fruits legumes and cash crops. Some of the major outbreak like cotton leaf viruses, potato yellow leaf viruses, chili leaf curl virus and tomato leaf curl virus.

            Chemical control of plant virus diseases is not only difficult but also pollutes the nature. Hence, ecofriendly strategies like botanicals play a major role in controlling viral infection on crops.

            Botanicals are being extensively used in the management of plant viruses. Effective viricides are lacking of the control of plant viruses.

            However, we at PONALAB have developed a plant based product (Botanicals) that inhibits virus infection by inducing local or systemic resistance when applied a few hours prior to virus challenge.

            The products once sprayed on suitable host plant, prevents infection of vectors like Whitefly, Aphids and other insects.
