plant growth regulation
Promoting seed germination: Berberine can affect the physiological and biochemical processes inside seeds, increasing their vitality and germination rate.
Regulating plant growth: It can regulate the hormone levels of plants, thereby affecting their growth and development. Research has found that treating tomato seedlings with berberine can promote root growth, increase fresh and dry weight of plants, and make them more robust.
Pest control
Antibacterial effect: Berberine has inhibitory effects on various plant pathogens. It can disrupt the cellular structure of pathogens, interfere with their metabolic processes, and thus inhibit their growth and reproduction.
Antiviral effect: Berberine can induce plants to produce antiviral proteins, enhancing their resistance to viruses. In the control experiment of tobacco mosaic virus, tobacco plants treated with berberine showed a significant reduction in viral infection symptoms and a significant decrease in disease index.
Insecticidal effect: Berberine has repellent and toxic effects on some pests. It can affect the nervous and digestive systems of pests, inhibiting their feeding, growth, and reproduction. Berberine has a certain control effect and can reduce the harm of pests to crops.
