Pyrimidine Derivatives As Analogues Of Plant Hormones For Intensification Of Wheat Growth During The Vegetation Period

 Wheat is one of the economically important cereals that are widely used in the agricultural sector of many countries. A very important issue is the development of new effective growth regulators to improve the growth and development of this crop in order to increase its productivity. In our investigations the regulating activity of the synthetic low molecular weight heterocyclic compounds, pyrimidine derivatives on growth and development of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety Tyra was studied. It was found that the use of pyrimidine derivatives in a concentration of 10-7M in water solution revealed a positive effect on the growth and development of both shoot and root systems of wheat plants during the vegetation period. Comparative analysis of the growth regulating activity of synthetic compounds showed that the activity of pyrimidine derivatives was differentiated and depended on substituents in their chemical structure. The application of pyrimidine derivatives as new effective regulators of growth and development of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) variety Tyra was proposed.
