META-X

META-X is an innovative specific liquid formulation based on mycorrhiza and antagonist microorganisms with beneficial capacities. Mycorrhizae increase the number of early roots and guarantee a higher growth and development, increasing mineral nutrient absorption like nitrogen, potassium and magnesium, especially those with a slow diffusion in soil (soluble phosphates, zinc, boron). Bacillacee present in the product, stimulate root growth and increase plant production through: inhibition of the activity of pathogen microorganisms in the rhizosphere, increase of availability and absorption of nutrients, increase of the efficacy of uptake and use of nitrogen, decrease and inactivation of toxic compounds or inhibitors of root development, production of stimulating substances (enzymes, growth factors and natural hormones, vitamins). Chitosan increases the performances of the product acting as elicitor of plant defenses, prompting cell wall and tissues thickening. META-X promote the development of Metarhizium anisopliae which through the production of specific toxins like destruxin and the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes like proteases, lipases and chitinases allow the plant to be more resistant and tolerant against biotic stresses, like, in example, beetles, flies, lepidopterans and click beetles.
