<p>Methods and compositions for the protection of plant tissue from damage upon exposure to chemical, air pollution, environmental and handling stresses, and to assist plant tissue in recovering from stress injuries, include the application of an effective amount of stress-protectant compositions selected from the group consisting of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, tetrahydrofurfuryl amine and mixtures thereof. The compositions are applied as aqueous solutions containing between about 0.005 and about 25 wt% of the stress-protectant components. Surfactants may be included to improved application of the compositions to the plant tissues.</p> |
