Description
Hoagland’s No. 2 Basal Salt Mixture – Modification 3 (HOP03) excludes nitrogen and is invaluable in plant tissue culture, particularly for research focused on nitrogen metabolism and plant growth responses to nitrogen availability or deficiency. By removing nitrogen, researchers can precisely control nitrogen levels, allowing detailed studies of how plants adapt and respond to varying nitrogen conditions. This is crucial for developing crops with improved nitrogen-use efficiency, reducing the need for costly and environmentally harmful fertilisers.
HOP03 is also essential for studying nitrogen-fixing plants. It enables detailed investigations into symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, enhancing our understanding and optimisation of biological nitrogen fixation. This natural process can significantly improve soil fertility without relying on synthetic fertilisers. The medium supports genetic and physiological studies, allowing researchers to explore gene expression and metabolic pathways related to nitrogen uptake and assimilation.
Storage Temp : 2°C to 8°C
