What types of biorational products are available?
How do biorational products work?
What are the benefits of biorational products?


Aura-Amino Acids, Peptides and Proteins

Pest Management - 0.5 CCA Credit for Series (3 Modules)

Biorational pesticides are derived from various sources and employ different modes of action to achieve efficacy. Aura activated by Vismax, a biorational fungicide from Loveland Products, utilizes a synthetic Flg22-bt peptide to activate a plant’s immune response system.

After completing this module, you should be able to answer these questions.
How do amino acids function as the building blocks of living things?
What is the difference between peptides and proteins?
In what way is a peptide like a key?
What is the function of the FLS2 receptor?
How does a plant’s immune response system deploy offense and defense to protect the plant?


Aura Biorational

Pest Management - 0.5 CCA Credit for Series (3 Modules)

Biorational products often take advantage of natural processes to obtain positive results. Aura is a new class of biorational fungicides from Loveland Products. Aura jump starts the plant’s immune response system by replicating the Vismax peptide, isolated from naturally occurring bacteria.

After completing this module, you should be able to answer these questions.
How does Aura work to trigger a plant’s immune response system?
What happens in the plant when the Vismax peptide binds with the FLS2 receptor?
Where are FLS2 receptors located?
How safe is Aura to workers, plants, pollinators, and other wildlife?
What adjuvants are recommended for use with Aura?
How many variations of Aura are available?
What crops can each variation be used on?
