Use for
V10 can be used to protect tomato plants against damaging symptoms of virulent strains of Pepino mosaic virus.
Diseases
Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV EU, PepMV LP, PepMV CH2), provides also moderate protection against PepMV US1.
Crops
Protected tomato crops.
How it works
Mode of action
Following inoculation with V10, asymptomatic PepMV isolates VC1 and VX1 become established throughout the plant. Infection by other PepMV isolates is severely compromised due to its degradation by RNA silencing. In this way the plant is equipped with a high level of protection against subsequent attempted infections by virulent PepMV strains.
