Inundatively used mycoherbicides have been uneconomical and ineffectual, mainly because a large inoculum is required to overcome weeds’ innate defenses, as well as the need for long dew periods to become established. Weed defenses can be suppressed by specific chemical agents, or overcome biologically (using mixed organisms and/or engineering enhanced pathogenicity), and better formulants replace the long dew periods.
