Description
Summary:Biological experiments with imbricin, a nonmedical application antibiotic, were carried out. It was established that this macrolide nonpolyene antibiotic is an environmentally friendly preparation possessing antifungal, insecticidal, and phytoregulatory activities. The prospects for its application in plant protection against diseases and harmful arthropods, as well as for increasing the agricultural crop yield were shown.
