Description

9-Benzyladenine is a synthetic cytokinin plant growth regulator widely used to promote cell division and delay senescence in plant tissues. This compound is valued for its high biological activity and stability, making it a key component in agricultural and horticultural research and formulation. It serves as an essential tool for plant physiologists, agrochemical manufacturers, and commercial growers seeking to enhance crop yield and quality.

Application

• Plant Tissue Culture: Used as a cytokinin source to induce shoot proliferation and callus growth in media for micropropagation.
• Agricultural Formulations: Incorporated into plant growth regulator (PGR) products to improve fruit set, delay leaf aging, and enhance stress tolerance in various crops.
• Horticulture: Applied to promote lateral bud break, improve the shelf life of cut flowers, and maintain the greenness of vegetables.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a standard or reagent in studies of cytokinin signaling pathways and plant hormone interactions.
• Seed Treatment: Used to break seed dormancy and improve germination rates in certain plant species.
• Commercial Crop Production: Applied in vineyards, orchards, and greenhouses to manage plant growth and development for optimized harvests.
