Mix 5- 10 ml oracle with 1 lit of water and soaks seedlings for 10 minutes in that solution and dries under shed for half an hour before plantation

Mode of Action -

Plasma membrane of fungi is the main target of chitosan. The positive charge of chitosan enables it to interact with negatively charged phospholipids components of fungi membrane. This will increase the permeability of membrane and causes the leakage of cellular contents, which subsequently leads to cell death. Chitosan acts as a chelating agent by binding to trace elements, causing the essential nutrients unavailable for normal growth of fungi. Chitosan could penetrate cell wall of fungi and bind to its DNA. This will inhibit the synthesis of mRNA and, thus, affect the production of essential proteins and enzymes.
