DCPTA can significantly enhance the protein content of soybeans; studies have demonstrated that it can increase the protein content of field-grown soybeans by 68%, while simultaneously boosting fat content by 20% and yield by 35%. This effect is particularly pronounced when a 60 ppm solution is applied via foliar spray during the initial flowering stage, and it also exerts positive influences on plant height, stem diameter, and the number of branches.
As a novel plant growth regulator, DCPTA promotes the accumulation of substances such as proteins and fats by enhancing photosynthetic efficiency and regulating gene expression, thereby achieving increased yield and improved quality without increasing the consumption of photosynthetic products. It can be formulated for combined use with fertilizers, pesticides, and other agrochemicals; it is widely applicable throughout the entire growth cycle of crops such as soybeans, and offers a multifaceted array of benefits, including enhanced drought resistance, disease resistance, and the prevention of premature senescence.
