Galactinol
Catalog No. A28497

Galactinol is a disaccharide carbohydrate that functions as a galactosyl donor, primarily acting as an osmoprotectant. It enhances plant disease resistance against fungal and bacterial pathogens while improving tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought, high salinity, low temperatures, and oxidative damage. Additionally, Galactinol scavenges hydroxyl radicals and plays a role in root colonization-induced systemic resistance. Its positive correlation with seed longevity positions Galactinol as a potential biomarker for seed vigor, making it valuable in researching various plant diseases, including fungal leaf spot and bacterial angular leaf spot.
