Monosilicic Acid Shows Significant Fungal Disease Suppression
Information
A series of replicated university trials have shown the potential for Plant Guard (formerly known and referred to as “Zumsil” in these reports) to supress common soil fungal diseases. Diseases treated include: rhizoctonia, fusarium, pythium, sclerotinia, blackleg, alternaria alternata, botryoshaeria dothidea, curvularia & gaeumannomyces. These university & laboratory trial results help to explain the beneficial attributes seen by growers who apply Plant Guard to their crops.Trials conducted by: Charles Sturt University, Free State University,Westgate Labs & Plant Diagnostics.

University Trials Monosilicic Acid
A series of replicated university trials have demonstrated the potential of Plant Guard (formerly referred to as “Zumsil” in these reports) to suppress common soil fungal diseases in agricultural crops. These findings provide a scientific basis for the disease resistance benefits observed by growers who have applied Plant Guard in their farming practices.
The trials targeted a range of serious soil-borne fungal pathogens, including rhizoctonia, fusarium, pythium, sclerotinia, blackleg, alternaria alternata, botryoshaeria dothidea, curvularia, and gaeumannomyces. The results indicated a notable reduction in disease severity, reinforcing Plant Guard’s role in promoting healthier crops and improved soil conditions.
These studies, conducted by Charles Sturt University, Free State University, Westgate Labs, and Plant Diagnostics, provide critical insights into how Plant Guard works at a biological level to enhance plant resilience against fungal infections. The suppression of these diseases can lead to stronger root development, healthier plant growth, and improved overall yield, making Plant Guard an effective solution for growers looking to improve disease management in their crops.
With its scientifically backed benefits, Plant Guard continues to prove its value as a powerful tool in modern sustainable agriculture. Trials conducted by: Charles Sturt University, Free State University, Westgate Labs & Plant Diagnostics.
