Abstract
, quadrupling the antibacterial activity of the Bordeaux combination. Furthermore, it was shown that FC might improve the germination, root development, and chlorophyll content of mung bean seeds while being 1/8 as hazardous to human mammary epithelial cells as the Bordeaux combination. The as-prepared FC can replace the Bordeaux combination in the management of agroforestry pathogens.
