Systemic Plant Cryoprotection With Choline Salts
US Patent:
5124061, Jun 23, 1992
Filed:
Apr 1, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/678056
Inventors:
Robert J. Geary - Vero Beach FL
International Classification:
C09K 318
US Classification:
252 70
Abstract:
A method of increasing the resistance of plants to damage by freezing conditions by treating the plants, prior to exposure to such conditions, to or with a composition containing a choline salt of a monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acid which is absorbed into the plant vascular system where it exerts it cryoprotective effects. Aqueous and powder compositions containing the choline salt combined with glycerin, propylene glycol and/or a water soluble nonionic surface active polyethoxylated polyoxpropylene block copolymer.
