BENEFITS FOR PLANTS

PHYTOCHEMICALS, POLYPHENOLS, FLAVONOIDS

 

PHYTOSTEROLS

Phytosterols regulate membrane fluidity, permeability, and modulate the ctivity of membrane-bound enzymes. Linked to plant adaptation to temperature variabilities and immunity against pathogens.

HORMONES

Hormones regulate cellular processes and differentiation, regulating the formation of the roots, stems, leaves, and flowers, and the ripening of fruit.

FATTY ACIDS

Fatty acids provide structural integrity and energy for metabolic process and function as signal transduction mediators.

POLYPHENOLS

Polyphenols defend against ultraviolet radiation, and aggression by pathogens. They contribute to oxidative stability, improve taste, color, flavor, the odor of the plant, and its resulting yield.

KETONES

Keytones protect plants from abiotic and biotic stresses, provide antioxidant capabilities and contribute to the synthesis of aromatic and physiologically important compounds.

FLAVONES

Flavones are antioxidants that provide oxidative protection in plants.
