Portuguese company CEV’s BLAD (Banda de Lupinus albus doce) polypeptide-based biofungicide, Problad, has obtained authorisation in Portugal. The approval is for the control of fungal diseases such as grey rot (Botrytis cinerea) and powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) affecting grapevines, moniliosis (Monilinia spp) in stone fruits, piriculariasis in rice paddies (Pyricularia spp), as well as black rot and powdery mildew in tomatoes, eggplants [aubergines] and strawberries. The active ingredient is derived from the aqueous extract of germinated seeds of Lupinus albus.
