Encapsulated allyl isothiocyanate improves soil distribution, efficacy against soil-borne pathogens and tomato yield.

Our research demonstrated the benefits of soil fumigation with loaded AITC over other formulations for effective pest control, improved tomato plant growth and fruit yield. Fumigant encapsulation appears to be a useful method to improve pest and disease control, environmental performance and fumigant commercial sustainability. This article is protected by copyright.
