General description

Gibberellic acid is an endogenous plant growth regulator
Gibberellic acid is a plant growth regulator, which can find applications in agriculture, to improve germination, overall development of the plant, increase the productivity and also the quality of food.

Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phytohormone that controls important aspects of plant growth: germination, elongation, and flowering. The effects are mediated by inducing degradation of the DELLA repressor protein, and probably other minor signalling pathways.
