What Is Crown Gall
Crown gall is a bacterial disease caused by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. It produces rough, woody galls on roots and stems that can disrupt vascular tissue and weaken young plants.
Crown gall is primarily a nursery issue and affects a wide range of woody plants, fruit crops, vines, and ornamentals.

How DYGALL Works
DYGALL introduces Agrobacterium radiobacter strain K84 to plant roots and wounds before planting. The beneficial bacterium occupies ecological niches and competes with pathogenic Agrobacterium tumefaciens, reducing the likelihood of infection.
Important: DYGALL is a preventative, not a cure. It will not control existing crown gall infections and must be applied before exposure.
