Plant growth regulators
Plant growth regulators (also known as phytohormones) are chemicals that regulate plant growth.
Plant growth regulators are signal molecules produced within the plant, and occur in extremely low concentrations. Hormones regulate cellular processes in targeted cells locally and, moved to other locations, in other functional parts of the plant. Hormones also determine the formation of flowers, stems, leaves, the shedding of leaves, and the development and ripening of fruit.
Plants, unlike animals, lack glands that produce and secrete hormones. Instead, each cell is capable of producing hormones.
Plant hormones shape the plant, affecting seed growth, time of flowering, the sex of flowers, senescence of leaves, and fruits. They affect which tissues grow upward and which grow downward, leaf formation and stem growth, fruit development and ripening, plant longevity, and even plant death.
Hormones are vital to plant growth, and, lacking them, plants would be mostly a mass of undifferentiated cells. So they are also known as growth factors or growth hormones.
α-Naphthaleneacetic acid/ α-Naphthaleneacetic acid-Na
α-Naphthaleneacetic acid/ α-Naphthaleneacetic acid-Na
Introduction
α-Naphthaleneacetic (1-NAA) acid is a synthetic plant hormone in the auxin family and is an ingredient in many commercial plant rooting horticultural products; it is a rooting agent and used for the vegetative propagation of plants from stem and leaf cutting. It is also used for plant tissue culture.

6-Benzylaminopurine
6-Benzylaminopurine, Benzyl adenine, 6-BA
Introduction
6-Benzylaminopurine, benzyl adenine or BAP is a first-generation synthetic cytokinin that elicits plant growth and development responses, setting blossoms and stimulating fruit richness by stimulating cell division. It is an inhibitor of respiratory kinase in plants, and increases post-harvest life of green vegetables. Influence of cytokinin as 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) in combination with other methods on postharvest green color retention on broccoli heads and asparagus spears, showed positive results for quality retention. Treatment with 10 and 15 ppm BAP can be used to extend shelf life of fresh-cut broccoli florets and shredded cabbage during storage at 6±1°C at commercial level.
6-Benzylaminopurine was first synthesized and tested in the laboratories of plant physiologist Folke K. Skoog.

Brassinolide
Brassinolide, 28-HOMO Brassinolide, 24-EPI Brassinolide
Introduction
Brassilolide has the ability to improve the quantity and quality of horticultural crops and protect plants against many stresses that can be present in the local environment. With the many advances in technology dealing with the synthesis of more stable synthetic analogues and the genetic manipulation of cellular Brassilolide activity, using Brassilolide in the production of horticultural crops has become a more practical and hopeful strategy for improving crop yields and success.

diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate
Diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate, DA-6
Introduction
Diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate/DA-6 is a broad spectrum and ground breaking effect of high plant growth promoter with high bio induced activities. It regulates the growth of plant and is the best additive for folair fertilizer, insecticide, fungicide and herbicide.

ethephone
Ethephone
Introduction
Ethephon is a plant growth regulator.
Upon metabolism by the plant, it is converted into ethylene, a potent regulator of plant growth and ripeness. It is also a butyrylcholinesterase inhibitor.
Ethephon often used on wheat, coffee, tobacco, cotton, and rice in order to help the plant's fruit reach ripeness more quickly.
Cotton is the most important single crop use for ethephon. It initiates fruiting over a period of several weeks, promotes early concentrated boll opening, and enhances defoliation to facilitate and improve efficiency of scheduled haresting. Harvested cotton quality is improved.
Ethephon also is widely used by pineapple growers to initiate reproductive development (force) of pineapple. Ethephon is also sprayed on mature-green pineapple fruits to degreen them to meet produce marketing requirements. There can be some detrimental effect on fruit quality.
The toxicity of ethephon is very low, and any ethephon used on the plant is converted very quickly to ethylene.
The use of this chemical is allowed in the European Union.

gibberellic acid A3/gibberellic acid A4+7
Gibberellic acid A3, GA3, Gibberellic acid A4+7, GA4+7
Introduction
Gibberellins (GAs) are plant hormones that regulate various developmental processes, including stem elongation, germination, dormancy, flowering, flowerdevelopment and leaf and fruit senescence. GAs are one of the longest-known classes of plant hormone. It is thought that the (albeit unconscious) selective breeding of crops strains that were deficient in GA synthesis was one of the key drivers of the "green revolution" in the 1960's, a revolution that is credited to have saved over a billion lives worldwide.

Mepiquat cloride
Mepiquat chloride, Mepiquat
Introduction
Mepiquat chloride is a plant growth regulator used exclusively on cotton. It is intended to increase yield by inhibiting gibberellic acid synthesis.

Prohexadione calcium
Prohexadione calciu, P-Ca
Introduction
Prohexadione calcium is foliarly applied plant regulator which reduces vegetative growth by inhibiting the synthesis of gibberellin, a naturally occurring plant hormone. Specifically it decreases the length of shoot internodes. Apogee in apples and pears decreases the need for pruning, allows more light to penetrate the tree canopy increasing fruit coloration, and, due to increased air circulation, decreases the incidence of fire blight, a bacterial disease of apples and pears. Baseline in peanuts decreases vegetative growth and aids mechanical harvesting.

Prohydrojasmon
Prohydrojasmon, PDJ
Introduction
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.

Triacontanol
Triacontanol, TRIA
Introduction
Triacontanol (TRIA) is a natural plant growth regulator found in epicuticular waxes. It is used to enhance the crop production in millions of hectares, particularly in Asia.
Quite a number of researchers have reported the TRIA-mediated improvement in growth, yield, photosynthesis, protein synthesis, uptake of water and nutrients, nitrogen-fixation, enzymes activities and contents of free amino acids, reducing sugars, soluble protein, and active constituents of essential oil in various crops.
Expectedly, TRIA enhances the physiological efficiency of the cells and, thus, exploits the genetic potential of plant to a large extent.

zeatin
Zeatin, ZT，Trans-zeatin
Introduction
Zeatin is a cytokinin derived from adenine. Zeatin was discovered in immature corn kernels from the genus Zea. It promotes growth of lateral buds and when sprayed on meristems stimulates cell division to produce bushier plants.
Zeatin has a variety of effects including:
- Promotes callus initiation when combined with auxin, concentration 1 ppm.
- Promotes fruit set. Zeatin 100 ppm + GA3 500 ppm + NAA 20 ppm, sprayed at 10th, 25th, 40th day after blossom.
- Retards yellowing for vegetables, 20 ppm, sprayed.
- Causes auxiliary stems to grow and flower.
Zeatin can also be applied to stimulate seed germination and seedling growth.
