CIVITAS is a dramatic breakthrough in fungus control technology. Unlike traditional chemical fungicides, CIVITAS does not just kill fungus. It works in a whole new way, turning on the natural defenses of the turf to help fight off the fungus.
Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR)
CIVITAS is the only commercially available turf fungicide treatment designed specifically for the golf course industry that is based on a unique mode of action called Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR). CIVITAS' synthetic isoparaffin-based formulation triggers ISR in the grass to help fend off fungal attack. By entering the plant through both the leaf and root systems, CIVITAS triggers signaling molecules that spread throughout the plant and primes the genes that produce antimicrobial compounds. When fungus attacks, primed genes release the plant-protecting compounds which will either kill or inhibit the fungus.
Here’s How CIVITAS Works Quick Re-entry
