INDOLE-3-BUTYRIC ACID

IBA Indole-3-Butyric Acid 98% TC 1% SL

Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) is a root-promoting plant growth regulator. It primarily promotes cell elongation. It also induces and enhances cell differentiation. Additionally, it controls apical dominance. It facilitates the generation of lateral and adventitious roots. It regulates flowering and sex differentiation. It manages fruit setting and development.

This compound is highly soluble in water. It has higher activity than indole-3-acetic acid. It degrades slowly under strong light. It can be stored in shaded conditions due to its stable molecular structure.

Users can apply indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) through leaf spraying or root dipping. It transmits into the plant body from leaves and seeds. The compound concentrates in the growth points. This action promotes cell division. It induces the formation of adventitious roots. As a result, the plant develops more roots. These roots are straight, thick, and have more root hairs.

Application

Promote rooting of cuttings: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) can promote root formation in plant cuttings, increasing the survival rate of cuttings. It can be used for the cutting propagation of various crops, such as trees, flowers, and vegetables.

Increase fruit set rate: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) can promote the development and maturation of fruits, thereby increasing the fruit set rate. In fruit tree cultivation, it is commonly used to enhance fruit set in apple, pear, peach, and other fruit trees.

Promote seed germination: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) can break seed dormancy and promote seed germination. In agricultural production, it can be used to treat seeds of crops such as rice, corn, and cotton, improving germination and seedling rates.

Regulate growth and development: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) can regulate the growth and development of plants, promoting growth and branching. It can be used to control plant height and morphology, increasing crop yield and quality.

Enhance stress resistance: Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) can enhance the stress resistance of plants, improving their ability to adapt to adverse conditions. For example, it can increase plants’ resistance to cold, drought, and pests and diseases.
