    Product Description

    Acibenzolar-S-methyl is a fungicide that induces systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in a variety of plants leading to infection resistance.1 It induces resistance in wheat concomitant with expression of wheat chemically-induced (WCI) genes when applied at 30 g per hectare.2 Acibenzolar-S-methyl (0.4 g/L) is protective against V. inaequalis in apple trees when used in combination with light integrated pest management (IPM) and increases fruit yield in comparison to the IPM-only group.1 Formulations containing acibenzolar-S-methyl have been used in the control fungi in industrial, commercial, and residential areas.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
