There are several compounds like Salicylic acid and Jasmonic acid regulates plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses as well as plant growth and development. Besides these two what other similar chemicals that can apply as a crop protection products in commercial agriculture?

Mohamed Ahmed Tammam

There are several compounds that can play an important defence role against such drastic conditions, but I believe that the secondary metabolites such phenolic including flavonoids compounds and other secondary metabolites would play an important role, and it should be recommended to be extracted and used in a wide range due to its efficiency and its natural origin.
