Wilting is a disease suffered by chili plants, caused by the fungus Phytophtora capsici. Current solutions against this disease use different agrochemicals. These result harmful to health, the environment and promote pathogen resistance.
So, how can synthetic biology offer a better solution?

Agrocapsi is a biofungicide that contains 2 antimicrobial peptides along with 2 iRNAs working against P. capsici. Using cell machinery, it is possible to create a solution that:
  • Doesn't contaminate soils & water bodies.
  • Doesn't affect the user's health.
  • Maintains beneficial microorganisms.

Our plan is to make the product effective, accessible and for it to keep up with the farmers' expectations. This solution can work on chili or any other kind of crop that suffers from this fungus.
