Method for reducing water stress in plants

Abstract

The present invention provides: a method for reducing water stress in a plant which comprises applying an effective amount of one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a compound represented by the formula (I) and agriculturally acceptable salts thereof to a plant that has been exposed to or to be exposed to water stress conditions; and so on.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods for reducing water stress in plants. Background technique [0002] Impaired water uptake occurs when plants are exposed to what may be referred to as drought stress conditions in which water content in the soil is reduced due to a shortage of precipitation or irrigation, or to what may be referred to as excess water stress conditions due to excessive When precipitation or irrigation increases the water content in the soil resulting in excess water conditions near the roots, the physiology of the cells may be impaired and thus various diseases may appear in the plants. Although phytohormones and some chemicals such as plant growth regulators are known to have effects on plants in reducing water stress such as drought stress or excess water stress (Journal of Plant Growth Regulation (2010) 29: 366-374), in practice those The effect is not necessarily satisfactory. Contents of the invention [0003] It is an ob...
