Description

Acibenzolar CAS NO 126448-41-7 is a highly effective plant activator belonging to the chemical class of benzothiadiazoles. It functions by inducing systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in plants, priming their natural defense mechanisms against a broad spectrum of pathogens. This compound is essential for agricultural researchers, formulators, and producers developing next-generation crop protection solutions for sustainable agriculture.

Application

• Plant Activator in Agriculture: Used as a key active ingredient in formulations to protect crops like rice, vegetables, and fruits from fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases by activating the plant's own defense system.
• Crop Protection Research & Development: Serves as a critical reference standard and experimental compound in R&D for novel biopesticides and integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.
• Seed Treatment Formulations: Incorporated into coatings to enhance seedling vigor and provide early-season protection against soil-borne pathogens.
• Foliar Spray Solutions: A component in foliar applications to manage diseases such as powdery mildew, blast, and bacterial blight in various field and horticultural crops.
• Synergistic Formulations: Combined with other fungicides or bactericides to improve efficacy and reduce the risk of pathogen resistance development.
