Biological pesticide, based on chitosane and entomopathogen nematodes. The invention consists of a new pesticide formulation, bio-stimulating and with fungicide effects, combining the bio-stimulating action due to chitosane to the biological control of plagues in agricultural and forest crops, due to phytopathogen insects by entomopathogen nematodes of the Steinernematidae and Heterorhabditidae families. There is a synergic action between the bio-stimulating and the biological pesticide due to the action of symbiotic bacteria of the Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus genres, carrying the nematodes of these families. The aforementioned action is synergically enhanced by the bio-stimulating effect of chitosane over plants, on favouring the radicular development and degree of lignification and provoking the elicitation of phytoalexins producer genes, as a defensive mechanism. |
