| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses "the various types of PGRs [plant growth regulators] available, their functions, modes of action and intended uses." States that "any substance that influences plant growth and development can be broadly defined as a PGR." Discusses plant hormones, stating that "the five major classes of naturally occurring plant hormones are: cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins, abscisic acid and ethylene." Defines growth-promoting PGRs, or biostimulants, as "complex mixtures of ingredients that may include organic acids, mineral nutrients, hormones or microorganisms" and states that "the two most popular ingredients of biostimulants in turfgrass management are seaweed extracts (from kelp or seaweeds) and humic substances (natural organic compounds resulting from the decomposition of organic matter of animals or plants." Profiles growth-inhibiting PGRs and their functions and uses, distinguishing between "cell-division inhibitors: Type I PGRs"; "gibberllin inhibitors: Type II PGRs"; and "other growth-inhibiting PGRs." Recommends "caution in the use of growth-inhibiting PGRs." Concludes that "ultimately, PGRs have great potential in turfgrass management, but more research is needed to justify the claims and promises." |
