As the deacetylation product of chitin, chitosan is an important component of fungal cell walls and the main component of the shell of crustaceans.
Since the 1980s, chitosan has been considered as a plant immune inducer with great potential, but its poor water resistance limits its further application.
As a degradation product of chitosan, chitosan oligos (LIN-COS) has received more attention and application in the field of plant protection due to its good water solubility and obvious effect in inducing plant immunity.
LIN-COS can induce disease resistance in crops such as tomatoes, wheat, strawberries, rapeseed and tobacco, and has very significant control effects on rice blast, sheath blight mosaic, powdery mildew and other diseases.
In addition,LIN-COS also has the effects of significantly promoting growth, increasing production, improving the quality of agricultural products, preserving fruits and vegetables, and resisting cold and drought.
