Plant Growth Regulators

Abscisic acid (ABA) is an isoprenoid plant hormone (phytohormone) synthesized in all parts of plants and involved in many plant developmental processes. ABA is involved in establishing dormancy and regulation of stress responses. ABA inhibits fruit ripening, seed germination, photosynthesis and kinetin biosynthesis. This product is plant cell culture tested. CAS NO.14375-45-2.

This product is plant cell culture tested. CAS NO. 77026-92-7.

Colchicine is an alkloid obtained from the meadow saffron plant, Colchicum autumnale (Liliaceae) and other Colchicum species. This product is extracted from Gloriosa superba seeds or alternatively from Colchico autunnale seeds. This product is plant cell culture tested (0.5 mg/ml) and is suitable for plant cell culture applications. CAS NO.64-86-8.

Dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid) is an organochlorine compound with plant growth auxin characteristics. Dicamba is used as a herbicide. This product is plant cell culture tested. CAS NO.1918-00-9.

Gibberillic acids (GA) are important plant growth hormones that promote plant cell growth and elongation. Gebberillins promote rapid stem and root growth, induce mitotic division and initiate (break dormancy) and increase seed germination rates. The gibberellins are also involved in processes such as gravitropism, tensioning and floral display. Gibberellin A3 and A4 may be used as supplements to plant growth media such as Murashige and Skoog media. The specific actions of A3 and A4 or combinations of Gebberellins should be determined in specific plant applications. This product is plant cell culture tested. CAS NO.77-06-5.

Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) (sold commercially as Roundup) is the most widely used broad-spectrum systemic herbicide in the world. Consequently, the environmental effects of glyphosphate and its mechanism of action are an important area of active research. This product is plant cell culture tested. CAS NO.1071-83-6.

Synthetic strigolactone analogue that has been shown to inhibit lateral shoot branching, stimulate germination of Striga (witchweeds), and aid in the symbiosis of more than 80% of terrestrial plants with fungi at arbuscular mycorrihizae in roots. This product is suitable for plant cell culture. CAS NO. 76974-79-3.

1-Triacontanol has been shown to increase plant growth through axilliary shoot proliferation. This product is plant tissue culture tested. CAS NO. 593-50-0.

2,3,5-Triiodobenzoic acid is an auxin-transport inhibitor. This product is plant tissue culture tested. CAS NO. 88-82-4.

2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid being an auxin can support embryogenesis and callus formation at low concentrations, and have herbicidal activity at high concentrations. This product is plant tissue culture tested. CAS NO. 94-75-7. This product is sterile filtered.
