Nomoren treated Common Bean, cv. Zargana Chrysoupolis, grown in a greenhouse had at first harest 101.9 % more total phenolics in pods, at second harvest 8.2 % more total phenolics in pods and seeds contained 255.6 % more phenolic acids and 104.8 % more flavonoids compared to the untreated control. Treated pods of second harvest and seeds showed significant efficacy againt Bacillus cereus.
