Amino Ethoxy Vinyl Glycine

Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) is a plant regulator used on apples, pears, and ornamentals. In apples, it may delay fruit maturity, leading to benefits such as a reduction in pre-harvest fruit drop and improved fruit quality. In pears, AVG may help maintain fruit firmness.

The aim of this study was to determine effects of postharvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine(AVG) treatment using vacuum infiltration method on retardation of ripening, storage and shelf life of Tomato Fruit.

Dosage

Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG), also known as ReTain, is a plant growth regulator that inhibits ethylene production, which can be applied to plants in various ways. It can be sprayed on the foliage of trees, especially before harvest, to reduce fruit drop and delay ripening. AVG can also be applied to the soil, particularly around the base of plants, to affect root development and overall growth. Specific application methods, including concentrations and timing, depend on the target crop and desired effect.

Industrial Usage

Plant Growth Regulator is a highly effective plant growth regulator containing aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG). AVG inhibits the biosynthesis of ethylene in plant tissues, the plant hormone responsible for inducing flowering in pineapples.

Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) prevents naturally differentiated flowering (NDF), a condition that leads to a disrupted supply of fruit, increased operational costs, and lower returns per acre. Aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) synchronizes harvest, providing growers control over their harvest schedule year-round. Controls naturally differentiated flowering (NDF) in pineapples, synchronizing harvest and allowing pineapple farms to set fruit availability year-round.
