Description

Dl-Dihydrozeatin is a synthetic cytokinin plant growth regulator, a dihydro derivative of the naturally occurring zeatin. This compound is valued for its enhanced stability and potent biological activity in promoting cell division and delaying senescence in plant tissues. It is essential for researchers and formulators in the agricultural biotechnology, plant tissue culture, and horticultural industries seeking to optimize plant growth and development under controlled conditions.

Application

• Plant Tissue Culture Media: A key component in nutrient media to induce shoot proliferation, callus growth, and organogenesis.
• Agricultural Biotechnology Research: Used in studies on plant cell signaling, senescence, and stress response mechanisms.
• Horticulture and Floriculture: Applied to improve the shelf life of cut flowers, delay leaf yellowing, and enhance the vitality of ornamental plants.
• Seed Treatment Formulations: Incorporated to stimulate germination vigor and early seedling establishment.
• Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) Blends: Used in combination with auxins and other PGRs to fine-tune plant morphological responses.
• Micropropagation Protocols: Critical for the commercial cloning of high-value crops, forestry species, and medicinal plants.
