    Product Description

    Jasmonic acid is a plant growth regulator and a derivative of α-linolenic acid (Item Nos. 90210 | 21910).1 It decreases chlorophyll levels in green and etiolated barley leaf segments when used at concentrations of 10 and 50 µM.2 Jasmonic acid (10-1,000 µM) inhibits elongation of rice seedlings.3 It increases germination of S. hermonthica seeds by 26% when used at a concentration of 1,000 µM.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
