AUXX-It Overview
Our Mission:
To inoculate endophyte beneficial fungus inside the leaves of corn and soybeans.
- Auxx-It is a foliar biological that inoculates leaves at post herbicide with beneficial endophyte fungus.
- Auxx-It is designed to get endophyte fungus through the cuticle of the plant leaf into the epidermis.
- beneficial endophyte fungus keep out the bad fungus. (use less fungicides)
- have high production of growth hormones (cytokine, gibberellins, and auxins)
- have high production of salicylic acid and abscisic acid (plant is primed for drought tolerance here)
- produce metabolites from the phyllosphere (leaves) to feed the rhizosphere.
- AFS uses the word Keystone Species to describe its product Auxx-It. Auxx-It is a group of beneficial endophyte fungus that lives in the leaves of corn and soybeans. The endophyte fungus become the Keystone Species that feed beneficial bacteria along with producing a myriad of metabolites that protect the plant from biotic and abiotic stress while feeding the rhizosphere microbiome. The endophyte fungus becomes the component of the phyllosphere microbiome that makes all other systems work in the plant which is why we call them a Keystone Species.
