AMINOCID
- Role In Plant / Bio-Synthesis of Amino Acid
Role in Plants
Increases supply of macro and micro nutrients.
Promotes enzymatic activities as natural stimulants.
Multiplies soil micro-flora and fauna due to its role as bio-activator.
Stimulates photosynthesis due to increases in availability of CO2
Stimulates protein creation as it contains amino acids which act as building blocks.
Increases resistance against crop
disease.
Balances sex ratio of flowers.
Induces flowering fruit setting and stops pre-mature flower dropping.
Improves the efficiency of the pesticides and fungicides.
Provides drought resistance by its direct action.
Improves the quality of produce and maintains the genetic character of the seeds.
Bio-Synthesis of Amino Acid
There are 20 amino acids identified in plants which essentially participate in bio-synthesis. The amino acids are building blocks of protein which are abundantly required for crop growth. The plants can produce proteins from the atmospheric nitrogen. The amino acids are the structural basis of proteins and are
synthesized in the root and leaf system of the plant, after
that they travel to the
synthesizing centers, which are new leaves & stems.
The protein synthesis occurs in the tiny organs of the cell viz. Ribosome. Nitrogen is a fundamental component of protein and key element in the production of crops. The other key elements are
Mn++ , Mg++, Ca++, Fe++. Sulphur is also very essential because its deficiency may effect poor protein synthesis.
