    Se ha comprobado que existen diferentes microorganismos que son antagonistas de los hongos fitopatógenos. Estos son bacterias y levaduras cuya presencia o secreción de metabolitos inhiben el crecimiento de estos hongos. El proyecto HORTOVITALIS parte de la idea de poder aislar y caracterizar microorganismos antagonistas de hongos fitopatégenos para poder desarrollar herramientas y metodologías basadas en el control biológico en producciones intensivas bajo plástico. HORTOVITALIS pretende abordar el principal problema por el cual este tipo de soluciones de control biológico no ha llegado a mercado, el de la estabilidad de los microorganismos a emplear frente a las infecciones fúngicas. Para ello los microorganismos antagonistas, o sus metabolitos inhibidores, serán estabilizados en formulaciones que puedan incluir extractos vegetales antimicrobianos y/o prebióticos, que faciliten la instalación y proliferación en el espacio tratado. _x000D_ _x000D_ Además, HORTOVITALIS presenta un concepto, totalmente innovador en cuanto al modo de aplicación de los tratamientos, pues se va a desarrollar un sistema de aplicación instalado sobre el sistema de emparrillado de los invernaderos que generará una niebla envolvente con el tratamiento biológico pudiendo llegar a todos los rincones del volumen de cultivo, de forma segura y cómoda para el agricultor, con la ventaja de ser un sistema desatendido y automatizado. El sistema consistirá en la diseminación de sistemas de nebulización por toda la superficie del invernadero que generará la niebla envolvente empleando las formulaciones de microorganismos antagonistas y extractos vegetales antimicrobianos. Extractos, que a su vez, como actividad contemplada en el proyecto HORTOVITALIS, serán obtenidos a partir de los subproductos vegetales de la empresa líder del consorcio Miguel García Sánchez. _x000D_ _x000D_ Continúa...

    It has been found that there are different microorganisms that are antagonists of phytopathogenic fungi. These are bacteria and yeasts whose presence or secretion of metabolites inhibit the growth of these fungi. The HORTOVITALIS project is based on the idea of being able to isolate and characterise microorganisms antagonists of phytopatogen fungi in order to develop tools and methodologies based on biological control in intensive productions under plastic. HORTOVITALIS aims to address the main problem by which this type of biological control solutions has not reached the market, that of the stability of microorganisms to be used against fungal infections. To this end, antagonistic microorganisms, or their inhibitory metabolites, shall be stabilised in formulations that may include antimicrobial or prebiotic plant extracts, which facilitate installation and proliferation in the treated space. _x000D_ _x000D_ in addition, HORTOVITALIS presents a concept, completely innovative in terms of the method of application of the treatments, as it will develop an application system installed on the slat system of greenhouses that will generate an enveloping fog with the biological treatment being able to reach all corners of the volume of cultivation, in a safe and comfortable way for the farmer, with the advantage of being an unattended and automated system. The system will consist of the dissemination of nebulisation systems throughout the surface of the greenhouse that will generate the enveloping fog using formulations of antagonist microorganisms and antimicrobial plant extracts. Extracts, which in turn, as an activity contemplated in the HORTOVITALIS project, will be obtained from the plant by-products of the leading company of the consortium Miguel García Sánchez. _x000D_ _x000D_ continues...
