Abstract:
The present invention is directed to the treatment of crop plants with 3′-methyl-(S)-abscisic acid, 3′-propargyl-(S)-abscisic acid, and/or salts thereof in order to improve the plants' environmental stress tolerance.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to methods for improving cold temperature damage recovery of a cereal grain comprising applying an effective amount of at least one gibberellin to the cereal grain during early vegetative growth stage. The present invention is also directed to methods for improving yield of a cereal grain comprising applying an effective amount of at least one gibberellin to a cereal grain suffering from cold temperature damage during the early vegetative growth stage.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to compositions and methods for improving corn growth. Methods of the invention comprise applying an effective amount of a mixture consisting of a gibberellin and glycine betaine to the corn plant. The present invention is further directed to methods for improving corn growth comprising applying an effective amount of a mixture of a gibberellin, (S)-(+)-abscisic acid and glycine betaine to a corn plant.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to methods for enhancing root growth comprising applying a S-Benzylthiouracil compound, or a salt thereof, to a plant, plant propagation material, root zone, or root of a plant. The invention also relates to methods for reducing the harmful effects of environmentally stressful conditions on plants, such as drought, or intense temperatures, by application of a S-Benzylthiouracil compound, or a salt thereof, to a plant, plant propagation material, root zone, or root of a plant. The invention further relates to new S-Benzylthiouracil derivatives, and salts thereof.
