Rhizoctonia solani is a soil-borne phytopathogenic fungus that causes damping off, primarily affecting seedlings in their early stages of development.
This pathogen attacks the base of the stem, causing brown lesions and tissue collapse, which leads to rapid weakening and death of the seedlings. It can also affect the roots, limiting water and nutrient uptake.
Its development is favored in moist soils with poor drainage and high planting density. The use of biosolutions helps prevent these infections by strengthening the plant's natural defenses and promoting healthier root development.
