ABSTRACT
This project deals with the development of novel, peptide based fungicides direct toward our beachhead market of leafy green producers in California and Arizona. Funds are used for fungicide design, lab, greenhouse-based, and field testing in CA and AZ, via contractors. Results show our fungicides have broad activity versus key fungal pathogens important to leafy green producers.
