TREATMENT OF PLANTS AND PLANT PROPAGATION MATERIALS WITH AN ANTIOXIDANT TO IMPROVE PLANT HEALTH AND/OR YIELD

摘要

Methods and compositions are described for the treatment of plants and plant propagation materials with an antioxidant alone or in combination with a pesticide with the result that treated plants and plant propagation materials demonstrate improved germination rates, and plants that grow from treated plant propagation materials, or plants that are treated directly, show improved stand density or vigor, and/or improved yields.
