Sabel-X Hort,
Improve yield with next generation Endophytic Trichoderma.
Trichoderma species based on more than three decades of research at Cornell University and other international biological research programs.
Their development is the latest result of screening more than 1,000 organisms from worldwide microbial libraries and selection/discovery programs, followed by hundreds of independent field trials around the world.
What Endophytic Tricoderma Does:
Quickly enter the plant, and once inside, produce metabolites via a symbiotic relationship that switches on genes whose pathways have a positive influence across the whole plant including:
Germination
Growth and vigour
Photosynthesis
Root development
Disease resistance
Stress resistance
Yield & Quality
Water utilisation
The process of switching on gene pathways is a dynamic process and changes depending on the conditions within the plant.
New technologies track the switching on of these gene pathways.
Why Endophytic Trichoderma Works:
Immediate response – inoculates within 16-48 hours and starts producing metabolites.
Lives between cells within the plant- not affected by fungicides
Typically 1 application only – live as long as the plant
Weathers tough conditions – not impacted by soil biology, soil pH and other adverse soil conditions – free-living Trichoderma live in the soil and are impacted by soil conditions
Micro-encapsulated for compatibility and robustness, even with phosphates and contact fungicides.
Unique – only 12 strains worldwide representing 1% of Trichoderma – 30+ years in the making.
Trichoderma – 3 types:
There are 3 very different types of Trichoderma with different functions:
Free Living – live in the general soil mass. They break down soil organic matter and help build soil health with long term benefits. They are subject to pH, waterlogging, heat etc and need regular applications.
Fungicides kill them
Require multiple applications
Rhizosphere Competent – live in the rhizosphere with strains selected to outcompete fungal pathogens and colonise the plant root system more aggressively.
Fungicides kill them.
Require multiple applications
Endophytic Trichoderma – immediately enter the plant and produce metabolites which then induce different plant responses depending on what the plant needs.
Fungicides do not kill them because Sabel-X Trichoderma lives between plant cells.
Typically one application because Sabel-X Trichoderma lives as long as the plant does.
Particularly useful as part of a soil health program for root rot.

Common Questions
What is Sabel-X Hort and how does it work?
Sabel-X Hort contains endophytic Trichoderma, a beneficial organism that enters plants and establishes a symbiotic relationship. Once inside, it produces metabolites that switch on plant gene pathways, supporting germination, growth, vigour, photosynthesis, root development, disease resistance, stress resistance, yield & quality, and water utilisation. The product is based on more than three decades of international research and field trials.
How is endophytic Trichoderma different from other types?
Endophytic Trichoderma lives between plant cells, so it is not affected by fungicides or soil conditions like pH or waterlogging. It typically requires only one application because it lives as long as the plant does. Other Trichoderma types (free-living and rhizosphere competent) live in the soil, are killed by fungicides, and need multiple applications.
What form does Sabel-X Hort come in?
Sabel-X Hort is supplied as a 250 gram product containing micro-encapsulated endophytic Trichoderma. The micro-encapsulation makes it compatible with phosphates and contact fungicides, and helps protect the organism for robust performance.
How quickly does Sabel-X Hort inoculate the plant?
The endophytic Trichoderma in Sabel-X Hort inoculates within 16–48 hours and starts producing metabolites immediately, delivering a rapid response to support plant health and performance.
