The present invention describes a composition including a mixture of L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers in a ratio of L to D of from about 80:20 to about 97:3 , and, a carrier medium for application of the L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers to a target plant. The composition can also be used as a germination medium and may be incorporated into a seed coat for assisting in germination. The present invention further describes a method of increasing the agronomic performance of a target plant by treating a target plant with a composition including a mixture of L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers in a ratio of L to D of from about 80:20 to about 97:3 and a carrier medium for said L- and D-pyroglutamate stereoisomers.
A composition comprising:
A method of increasing the plant growth, increasing the plant yield, increasing flowering potential, or increasing resistance to stress from a herbicide for a target plant comprising:
A method of treating seeds prior to planting comprising treating the seeds with a mixture of L- and D- pyroglutamate stereoisomers in a ratio of L to D of from about 80:20 to 97:3.
