It is unique in that is a biological that not only controls foliar diseases but also offers control of soil-borne diseases such as pythium, phytophthora, and rhizoctonia.

Triathlon BA colonizes plant root hair, preventing establishment of disease-causing fungi and bacteria, notes Dr. Carlos Bográn, OHP manager of technical services.

Triathlon BA not only gives the bedding plant grower an option, it also fills a need for the herb and vegetable grower, who has limited choices for disease control,” notes Dr. Bográn.
