Beauveria Bassiana ~ Biological EnDophyte and plant symbiont 

Rock Dust Local is pleased to offer this high performance, naturally occurring endophyte fungus in dormant spore. This inoculant is used as a soil plant enhancer and seed coating/lubricant.

For organic production: SPE-ES, SPE-120 soil plant enhancer and seed coating/ lubricant
For commercial conventional management:  SBb-2.5
Dry powder and liquid carrier formulations available. 


Biological Seed Treatment
Soil and Plant Enhancer (SPE-120) with active ingredient Beauveria bassiana, is a natural, symbiotic fungus that lives in the soil, roots, stems, and leaves. JABB strains are isolated from plants, for plants. As the plants grows, the symbiotic endophyte in SPE-120 grows with it. SPE-120 is approved for organic production.

SPE-120 is applied as an inoculant at planting with no target disease or insect specified. There is no singular mode of action, rather a response to plant activity favoring its host. Once the plant germinates, SPE-120 becomes a symbiotic endophyte within the plant that works with plant cells, other beneficial organisms, and the surrounding agro-ecosystem. This symbiotic partnership elevates the plant’s natural ability to resist pathogens and stressors, ultimately improving plant health, quality, and yields.

Direct contact with seed is preferred to assure plant entry at germination. Applied on, under, or atop of seed allows SPE-120 competitive preference to initial plant roots where it becomes a symbiotic endophyte within the plant. 
​

As an endophyte:
  • Inhibits soil borne plant pathogens
  • Improves nutrient uptake as the rhizophagy cycle is optimized
  • Offers competitive exclusion from soil-borne pathogens
  • Increases uniform germination and stand
  • Enhances microbial diversity
  • Higher plant immune status
  • Increases Brix values 
  • Increases chlorophyll content in leaves
  • Enhances plant defense
  • Improves standability
  • Improves quality at harvest
  • Improves storage
  • Decreases mycotoxins at harvest
