Aliette is a systemically-active fungicide for the extermination of diseases caused by fungi of the water mold (Oomycetes) group. It works both directly on the fungus and indirectly, by stimulating the plant’s natural defenses – a unique mode of action resulting in an extremely low risk of resistanceIt is highly systemic, travelling both up and down the plantIt meets food-chain requirementsAliette is efficient for exterminating and preventing the development of Phytophthora citrophthora in packing houses and during shipping to markets, as well as aids in the delaying of mold development.

Mode of Action

• When applied as a preventative treatment, Product inhibiting spore germination and the penetration of the pathogen into the plant or blocks mycelial development and sporulation, in the case of a curative treatment the product slows down sufficiently the invasion of the pathogen, by reinforcing the natural defensive reactions of the plants and subsequently enabling the host's hypersensitive physical response to localize or seal-off the invading organism
