Description

2-Naphthylacetic acid (NAA) is a synthetic auxin, a plant hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating plant growth and development. It is commonly used in agriculture as a rooting hormone, promoting root formation in cuttings and grafts. NAA can also be used to stimulate fruit set and improve yield in various crops. The synthesis of NAA involves the reaction of naphthalene with acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst. NAA has been extensively studied for its diverse physiological effects on plants, including cell elongation, root initiation, lateral bud growth, and flower development. Its importance lies in its ability to enhance crop production and improve plant propagation techniques. Research on NAA focuses on understanding its mode of action at the molecular level, optimizing its application for specific crops, and exploring its potential for improving plant stress tolerance and resilience.'
