Prohydrojasmon

Prohydrojasmon is a synthetically made plant growth regulator that is structurally similar and functionally identical to jasmonic acid, a naturally occurring plant growth regulator present in all vascular plants. Jasmonic acid is involved with fruit colour development in red apple varieties by enhancing accumulation of anthocyanin, which is a red pigment and found predominantly in outer cell layers such as the epidermis and mesophyll cells in flowers and fruits.

Applications

• Improving coloration of apple.
• Improving coloration and the quality of grapes.
• Improve the cold resistance, drought resistance and antiviral ability of crops like rice, corn and wheat.
