High temperature tolerance inducer, procedure for inducing high temperature tolerance in plants.

Abstract

This high-temperature tolerance inducer for plants comprises a carrier containing an active ingredient comprising at least one compound with a boiling point or sublimation point of 200 °C or lower and a hydrophobic compound with a boiling point above 200 °C, supported on a porous material. The solubility of the hydrophobic compound in water is preferably less than 10 g / 100 mL. The hydrophobic compound is preferably at least one compound selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils, mineral oils, and wax esters. The active ingredient is preferably an unsaturated carbonyl compound.
