Natural Plant Growth Regulator Cytokinin Kinetin

Plant Growth Regulator Cytokinin Kinetin(6-KT)
KINETIN, 6-Furfurylaminopurine, A kind of indole broad-spectrum plant growth regulator with somatotropin activity. Mainly used to promote rooting of herbaceous, woody ornamental cuttage plants and skin care ingredients.Kinetin is a Cytokinin type plant growth regulator. It can promote cell division, differentiation and growth, and thus enhance germination and fruit set, induce callus initiation, reduce apical dominance, break lateral bud dormancy, retard aging. It is used in agriculture, fruit and vegetable planting, tissue culture.

Application1)Kinetin is a cytokinin type plant growth regulator. It can promote cell division, and leaf expansion, stimulate the growth of lateral buds and retard leaf ageing, differentiation and growth, and thus enhance germination and fruit set, induce callus initiation, reduce apical dominance, break lateral bud dormancy, retard aging.2)It is used in agriculture, fruit trees, vegetable planting and tissue culture, to promote seed germination and end dormant state of lateral buds.about the PGR
