Biological innovation with strong technical support<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Veganic, we develop agricultural biosolutions that combine science, innovation, and a strong technical field approach. Our goal is to provide effective tools to address today\u2019s farming challenges: high pest pressure, resistance development, and the need for more sustainable programs compatible with Integrated Pest Management (IPM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incorporation of ABLE\u00ae GC91 into our portfolio in Mexico reflects this vision: an advanced microbial solution designed to deliver precision, potency, and stability in the control of key lepidopteran pests in high-value horticultural crops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is ABLE\u00ae GC91?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ABLE\u00ae GC91 is a microbial bioinsecticide formulated with Bacillus thuringiensis<\/em> subsp. aizawai<\/em> GC91 (3.8%), specifically developed for the control of difficult pests. It holds COFEPRIS Registration No. RSCO-INAC-0105-368-002-004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its technological foundation is an exclusive, transconjugated and hyperactive strain optimized to deliver enhanced insecticidal potency, improved field persistence, and high industrial stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The innovation behind the GC91 strain<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ABLE is not a conventional Bt. It is based on a hybrid transconjugated strain (aizawai<\/em> + kurstaki<\/em>), developed through horizontal gene transfer to enhance the production of specific Cry toxins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transconjugated and hyperactive strain<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The GC91 strain was improved to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Increase production of Cry1Aa and Cry1Ab, essential for worm control in fruiting horticultural crops
\u2022 Generate synergy among multiple insecticidal proteins
\u2022 Improve stability during fermentation and shelf life
\u2022 Enhance persistence and performance under real field conditions<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is a more potent, more stable, and scientifically optimized strain, effective even against advanced larval stages (L3\u2013L4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Triple lethal action with high Cry toxin concentration<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ABLE\u00ae GC91 acts through a biological system of three complementary modes of action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Protein crystals (Cry toxins)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It contains multiple Cry toxins\u2014particularly Cry1Aa and Cry1Ab\u2014which activate in the insect\u2019s alkaline midgut, bind to specific receptors, and cause cellular disruption, paralysis, and death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Viable spores<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These germinate inside the insect, enhancing insecticidal activity through septicemia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Fermentation derivatives<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

They act synergistically with crystals and spores, increasing the overall efficacy of the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to its high concentration and internal synergy, ABLE\u00ae GC91 achieves greater efficacy even at lower doses, optimizing cost per hectare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed for difficult pests in high-value crops<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ABLE\u00ae GC91 was specifically developed for the control of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Spodoptera<\/em> spp.
\u2022 Helicoverpa<\/em> spp.
\u2022 Trichoplusia<\/em> spp.
\u2022 Plutella<\/em> spp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its performance stands out even in L3\u2013L4 larval stages, where many biological products tend to lose effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its high specificity and microbial origin, make it a strategic ally within IPM programs and organic or low-residue production systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formulation technology with integrated UV protection<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ABLE\u00ae GC91 formulation incorporates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Integrated ultraviolet protection for improved persistence under solar radiation
\u2022 Optimization for applications at a pH close to 6.5
\u2022 Evening application recommendation to maximize efficacy

The combination of advanced strain + optimized formulation + regulatory backing (COFEPRIS) positions ABLE\u00ae GC91 as a solid and reliable technical tool for the Mexican market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABLE\u00ae GC91 \u2013 Biological precision for more efficient agriculture<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In an environment where pests evolve and pressure increases, ABLE\u00ae GC91 represents a new generation of specific, stable, and highly effective bioinsecticides designed to tackle complex pests with a strong scientific foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explore how to integrate ABLE\u00ae GC91 into an organic or low-residue production system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
