Product Detail

Description

6-BA can promote flowering in some plant species by inducing the formation of flower buds. It influences the development of reproductive structures and can help synchronize flowering in crops, leading to more uniform flowering and fruit set. This is particularly important in horticultural crops where flowering and fruiting are essential for yield.

Mode of Action

6-benzyladenine (6-BA), also known as benzyl aminopurine, is a synthetic cytokinin, a class of plant hormones that regulate various aspects of plant growth and development. In agriculture, 6-BA is commonly used to promote plant growth, increase yields, and improve the quality of crops.

Applications

Application of 6-BA can improve fruit setting and development in certain fruit crops, leading to increased fruit yields and improved fruit quality. It can also help reduce fruit drop and enhance fruit size and uniformity.
