Review. New natural products for agriculture: the oligosaccharins
Main Article Content
Abstract
and plant growth, enhance crop yields and benefit symbiosis
in leguminous. A great number of studies demonstrate crop
protection by oligosaccharins against biotic and abiotic
stress. Some oligosaccharins, such as chitosans, perform
direct antimicrobial activity, this fact reinforce their
application as protective agent of agricultural commodities
quality. There are several international commercial products
based on these macromolecules that bearing also, as an
additional valor, the innocuous and biodegradable features
of these compounds. The Group of Bioactive Products
(GPB) from INCA has developed several oligosaccharins
based products that constitute national alternatives to agroproducts as plant growth regulators, enhancers of crop yields,
plant protecting agents against biotic and abiotic stress and
new type of biofertilizers for biological nitrogen fixation in
leguminous.
