Regulators, also known as plant growth regulators, are substances used to control plant growth and development. These include naturally occurring plant hormones and synthetic compounds that mimic their activity. Plant hormones, produced by plants themselves, are key natural components of regulators.
Regulators find wide application in agriculture, used for various crops such as flowering plants, rice, vegetables, and fruit trees. They influence plant physiological functions, with a range of products available based on different plant hormones.
Common plant hormones used in regulators include:
Auxin stimulates growth at low concentrations but can suppress it at higher levels. It promotes stem elongation and rooting.
Gibberellin aids in germination, stem growth, and flowering, and is used for producing seedless grapes.
This hormone works alongside auxin to promote germination and cell division.
Known for inhibiting growth, abscisic acid plays a role in inducing dormancy and regulating stomatal functions.
Ethylene accelerates flowering and fruit ripening and has a range of effects including stem enlargement.
Choosing the right regulator is critical, as it can either promote or inhibit plant functions. Selection should be based on the desired effect, considering the specific needs of the plant species in question.
Regulators can enhance plant quality, increase yields, and stabilize growth. Specific benefits vary based on the type of plant and the regulator used.
Regulators require careful dosage to be effective. Overuse can have adverse effects, and safety precautions are necessary during application and storage.
