    Product Description

    trans-Zeatin riboside is a cytokinin that has been found in squash root xylem sap.1 It suppresses hypocotyl adventitious root formation in cucumber plants when used at concentrations ranging from 0.001 to 1 µM. trans-Zeatin riboside (10 µM) increases the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), catalase (CAT), and guaiacol peroxidase (POD) in the leaves, as well as improves turf quality and delays leaf wilting in a creeping bentgrass model of drought stress.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
