Description

Tuberonic Acid CAS NO 124649-26-9 is a naturally occurring plant growth regulator and signaling molecule, a derivative of jasmonic acid. It plays a critical role in plant defense mechanisms and systemic acquired resistance (SAR), making it a valuable compound for agricultural research and development. This compound is essential for researchers and formulators in the agrochemical and plant biotechnology sectors seeking to enhance crop resilience and study plant-pathogen interactions.

Application

• Plant Defense Elicitor: Used in research to study and induce systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in various crops against bacterial, fungal, and viral pathogens.
• Agrochemical Formulation: A key intermediate or active ingredient candidate in the development of next-generation, biologically-inspired plant protection products.
• Plant Physiology Research: Essential for investigating jasmonate signaling pathways, wound response, and the biosynthesis of defensive metabolites in plants.
• Seed Treatment & Priming: Explored in laboratory settings for potential use in seed treatments to improve germination vigor and early seedling defense.
• Biostimulant Development: Serves as a reference standard or component in the formulation of advanced plant biostimulants aimed at improving stress tolerance.
• Metabolic Studies: Used as a standard in analytical chemistry (HPLC, LC-MS) for quantifying jasmonate-related compounds in plant tissue samples.
