COMPOSITION FOR IMPROVING GROWTH OF PLANTS OR SEEDS, METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF PLANTS AND SEEDS, COMPOSITION FOR COVERING SEEDS

摘要

The present invention describes a composition including a mixture of L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers in a ratio of L to D of from about 80:20 to about 97:3, and, a carrier medium tor application of the L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers to a target plant. The composition can also be used as a germination medium and may be incorporated into a seed coat for assisting in germination. The present invention further describes a method of increasing the agronomic performance of a target plant by treating a target plant with a composition including a mixture of L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers in a ratio of I. to D of from about 80:20 to about 97:3 and a carrier medium for said L and D- pyroglutamate stereoisomers.
