Is Pezoloma ericae an AAPFCO-listed plant biostimulant, and what claim language has AAPFCO accepted?
Pezoloma ericae — also indexed as Rhizoscyphus ericae, Pezizella ericae, and Hymenoscyphus ericae — appears in AAPFCO's plant biostimulant source data under group 126. That listing gives it recognized standing as a biostimulant ingredient for products formulated under AAPFCO-aligned state labeling frameworks.
AAPFCO has accepted two label claims for Pezoloma ericae biostimulant products: that the organism stimulates growth and vigor while promoting the development of strong roots with a greater capacity to absorb water and nutrients, and that it functions as an ericoid mycorrhizal fungus on Ericaceae family plants. Those are the claims the index supports — no broader efficacy assertions are endorsed here.
