Title:
【発明の名称】霜害に対する植物の保護
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS58501256
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Frost-sensitive plants are protected against frost injury by topical application thereto of non-phytotoxic virulent bacteriophages which are species-specific to the ice-nucleating bacteria normally present on the plants. The bacteriophages selectively attack the ice-nucleating bacteria and inhibit their ice-nucleating activity, thereby reducing the temperature at which frost injury occurs.
