摘要:
Soluble and stable liquid compositions containing a plant growth regulator selected from the group consisting of cytokinin and a gibberellin, an acid solubilizer such as citric acid, tartaric acid or glycolic acid and a solvent; as well as methods for making and using the composition are disclosed. The compositions improve solubility, handling, stability, safety, as well as activity improvements such as improved plant growth, yield, fruit thinning or sizing and quality. The compositions are soluble and stable by adding an ethoxylated alkyl alcohol wherein the growth regulator is 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) or forchlorfenuron (CPPU) and the ethoxylated alcohol surfactant is C12-15 alkyl alcohol in propylene glycol. The compositions may also contain a cytokinin such as 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) or forchlorfenuron (CPPU) that is increased in solubility and activity and by synergistically combined with GA3 or GA4A7 as well as in storage stability by adding an antioxidant. The compositions are formulated in a ready-to-mix formulation.
摘要:
A water-soluble granular composition including at least 40% of at least one plant growth regulator, at least one binder, at least one disaccharide and at least one surfactant; as well as methods for making and using the composition are disclosed. The water-soluble granular composition advantageously improves preparation of a solid plant growth regulator formulation for spray application, as such composition swiftly dissolves, is easily metered for application, can be more highly concentrated and is dust-free. A presently preferred water-soluble granular composition includes at least 40% of at least one gibberellin as the plant growth regulator.

摘要:
The invention generally relates to various cinnamaldehyde (cinnamic aldehyde) formulations for protecting plants from nematodes and other pathogens. The invention provides specific formulations which do not require the use of chemical additives. These formulations have low phytotoxicity and low volatility. Also, methods of applying the formulations for agricultural use are disclosed.
摘要:
This invention is directed to a method for promoting early establishment of potato crops, and is particularly directed to promotion of potato sprout number and length, and reduction of sprout tip necrosis. In one aspect of the invention, a method is provided for increasing the number of sprouts per tuber, comprising the steps of administering an effective amount of aminoethoxyvinylglycine or 1-methylcyclopropene to the tuber to promote sprouting in the tuber. In another aspect of the invention, a method is provided for promoting the elongation of sprouts, comprising the steps of administering an effective amount of aminoethoxyvinylglycine or 1-methylcyclopropene to the tuber to promote sprout elongation. In yet another aspect of the invention, a method is provided for reducing sprout tip necrosis, comprising the steps of administering an effective amount of aminoethoxyvinylglycine to the tuber to reduce sprout tip necrosis.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for producing a new nematocidal composition particularly useful against plant parasitic nematodes and also a process to prevent damage resulting from nematode infestation. The method for production of the composition involves heating a pH-adjusted fermentation broth of microorganisms to a temperature of at least about 100° C. for at least about 15 minutes. Preferably, the microorganism is Gibberella fujikuroi, Streptomyces erythraeus, Bacillus sphaericus, Bacillus thuringiensis or Fusarium moniliforme.
