What is plant growth regulator?
Plant growth regulators are the synthetic or natural chemicals that are responsible in controlling the growth and development of the plant. Natural plant growth regulators are produced with in specific parts of plants in minimal qualities and migrate to other parts, manipulating several physiological functions to regulate the plant’s growth such as promoting plant cell division and cell expansion, leaf expansion, retarding senescence of the leaves, ripening of fruits & vegetables, fruit & flower maturation, and seed germination. The major types of plant growth regulators are cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins, ethylene and abscisic acid.
What are the major applications for Plant growth regulator?
The various end users assessed include fruits & vegetables, turf & ornamental, cereals & grains, oil & seeds, and others. The major fruits that utilize PGR are apples, banana, grapes, mango, litchi, water melon, pine apple, kiwi and others. Vegetables like cucumber, lettuce, spinach, cabbage, pumpkin and others use these plant growth regulators. The main objective for the application of PGR in fruits and vegetables is to support their ripening. This is achieved by ethylene which is also called as ripening hormone.
The turf and ornamentals segments comprises of turf grass, nursery plants, ornamental plants, ornamental flowers, woody ornamentals, bedding plants, green house plants and others. In lawn and turf grass management, PGRs have applications in initiating and maintaining turf growth, preventing change in the color of the grass during conditions of cold stress, reducing mowing frequency, increasing plant thickness and limiting vegetative growth there by improving the quality of turf.
