Plant Growth Regulators 5-Aminolevulinic Acid HCl (5-ALA)

5-Ala can regulate the synthesis of chlorophyll, improve the stability of chlorophyll and light system, To improve photosynthetic efficiency to promote the photosynthesis; Promote plant tissue differentiation and inhibit plant breathing in dark, enlarging stomatal and other basic physiological activity. So it is not only a kind of metabolic intermediate, but it is also involved in regulation process of plant growth, it has the similar physiological activity of plant hormone, so it can be used as plant growth regulator in the agricultural production.

Application:

1. Used as plant growth regulator

It can regulate the synthesis of chlorophyll, improve the stability of chlorophyll and light system, To improve photosynthetic efficiency to promote the photosynthesis; Promote plant tissue differentiation and inhibit plant breathing in dark, enlarging stomatal and other basic physiological activity. So it is not only a kind of metabolic intermediate, but it is also involved in regulation process of plant growth, it has the similar physiological activity of plant hormone, so it can be used as plant growth regulator in the agricultural production.

2. Used as herbicide

Herbicide which contains 5-Ala can kill weeds of dicotyledonous plants, while it is harmless for many plant belong to the monocotyledonous plant crops such as corn, wheat, barley, so it is selective herbicide.

3. Used as insecticide

It can cause biochemical metabolism imbalance of housefly, cockroaches and other pests, then make the pest convulsions to death. it is a pollution-free natural substance, has biodegradability, and no drug resistance, it is potential new type green pesticide.
