20120129697 | Plant Growth Enhancing Mixture and Method of Applying Same - Plant growth enhancing mixture and method of selectively timing the application of same during the development of crop plants or other plants to positively augment cell number increase and cellular development of crop plants or other plants to enhance development and/or productivity of the economic portion of the crop plant or other plant. Application of the plant growth enhancing mixture at flowering enhances both weak flowers and normally strong flowers. The plant growth enhancing mixture and method of application have also been shown to impart varying disease resistance to the treated crop or other plants. The plant growth enhancing mixture and method of application also increases the depth and strength of rooting for greater access and transport of water and nutrients for growth and productivity of the crop plant. | 05-24-2012 |
20120252673 | COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR STRESS MITIGATION IN PLANTS - A composition and method to mitigate plant autophagy and/or apoptosis of newly developing cells in plants grown under environmentally stressful growing conditions. Exogenous application of a cytokinin, preferably kinetin, to the foliage of plants has been discovered to overcome, or at least mitigate, autophagy when applied during or just prior to flowering. Several provided examples show that, in laboratory and field experiments, exogenous foliar application of cytokinin to the leaves and flowers of plants lessened cytokinin deficiencies in plant tissues grown in high temperatures, thereby mitigating autophagy and apoptosis and greatly enhancing seed/crop production. The application of low concentrations of potassium together with the cytokinin appears to provide a synergistic effect by amplifying the effect of the cytokinin to lessen autophagy and increase crop productivity. | 10-04-2012 |
20120295788 | COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR STRESS MITIGATION IN PLANTS - A composition and method to mitigate plant autophagy and/or apoptosis of newly developing cells in plants grown under environmentally stressful growing conditions, such as high temperature. Exogenous application of a cytokinin, preferably kinetin, to either the roots or the foliage (i.e., flowers and leaves) of plants has been discovered to overcome, or at least substantially mitigate, autophagy when applied during or just prior to flowering. Experimental results indicate that high temperature-induced autophagy, and subsequent new cell apoptosis, is the result of a deficiency of cytokinin in the plant tissues. The application of low concentrations of potassium together with the cytokinin appears to provide a synergistic effect by amplifying the effect of the cytokinin to lessen autophagy and increase crop productivity. | 11-22-2012 |
20130065762 | METHOD FOR ENHANCING CROP YIELDS BY APPLICATION OF TREHALOSE - A method for increasing and/or preserving yields and/or biomass in crop species including potatoes, beets, sugar cane, corn, soybeans and others by exogenous application of trehalose and/or trehalose derivatives at any time in the growing process such as before crop sowing, during sowing, or during plant establishment. The method, when applied early in crop production results in enhanced health and vigor of the mother plant resulting in healthier produce having reduced sugars from the mother plant. | 03-14-2013 |
20130281298 | PLANT GROWTH ENHANCING MIXTURE - Trehalose or trehalose-6-phosphate, when applied exogenously to citrus trees that are compromised in their growth and development with the condition referred to as citrus greening or HLB, can overcome the deadly effects of the problem. Renewal of tree tissue with trehalose or trehalose-6-phosphate has been documented to begin as soon as 72 hours after exogenous application to the dying tree. The tissue renewal continues with near complete renewal of the leaf canopy, development of fruiting buds, followed by flower development and then development of the flowers into abundant and healthy fruits. Much of what appeared to be dead wood tissue could be covered with healthy new leaves within 2 to 4 months after application. Addition of defined hormones to the soil application of trehalose or trehalose-6-phosphate further enhanced development of new canopy and root tissue. | 10-24-2013 |
20140123556 | Plant Growth Mixture Enhancing Deep Plant Root Growth and Signaling for Drought Tolerance - A plant growth enhancing mixture and method of application applied exogenously very early in crop establishment, as a seed treatment, or in the seed furrow or into the soil for the roots of crop plants, in the right proportions, result in a root pattern that has very deep and strong rooting with a distinct minimal of profuse proliferation of lateral roots close to the soil surface, having numerous benefits as well as preferred, in situ, plant auxin transport and heightened drought tolerance. | 05-08-2014 |
