Dipotassium phosphite is a phosphite salt and is an antibacterial agent. Dipotassium phosphite directly and indirectly affects development of Phytophthora infestans.Dipotassium phosphite reduces late blight severity in field-grown tomato plants and increases productivity of field-grown tomato plants. Dipotassium phosphite can be used for the research of late blight [1].
In Vivo, Dipotassium phosphite (2.5 mL/L of a 45.8% monopotassium and dipotassium phosphite formulation; foliar; every 7 days) in combination with fungicide reduces late blight severity by 90.01% and increases tomato yield by 638% relative to untreated controls[1].
