Active peptidase APE+is a promising remedy for addressing key issues faced by crops and soil in agriculture.
1. Improve the efficiency of photosynthesis
The photosynthetic protease in APE+can accelerate the process of photosynthesis, promote the production of more photosynthetic products (i.e. carbohydrates) in chloroplasts, and guide their transport to the reproductive organs of crops, such as buds, flowers, and fruits, achieving early flowering, early fruiting, early color transformation, and early maturity, and stimulating the maximum yield increase of crops. It's like installing a 'super engine' on plants, allowing them to utilize sunlight more efficiently.
2. Open up channels for water and nutrient transport
The function of small molecule peptidases is to clear and dissolve blood clots in patients with heart or cerebral infarction. As is well known, the transpiration of crops relies on the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil by the roots, which are then transported to the "roots, stems, and leaves" of the crops through the vascular bundles of the stems. The abuse of chemical fertilizers leads to severe fertilizer residues in the soil, with increasingly high EC values. When the salt concentration and osmotic pressure of the soil are higher than those of crop roots, the soil will "suck back" water and nutrients from the crops through the roots, resulting in stunted crop growth, delayed development, and the occurrence of "dead plants, rotten seedlings, and rotten roots". Small molecule peptidases can directly open up the vascular bundles in the root tips and stems of crops, making the vascular channels unobstructed, enhancing transpiration, and improving the ability of roots to absorb water and nutrients, thereby ensuring the healthy growth of crops.
3. Improve resilience
Extreme enzymes are specific functional enzymes that enhance crop stress resistance. In most crops grown outdoors, it is difficult to change the impact of adverse weather and soil environment on their growth. Therefore, improving the crop's own stress resistance is particularly crucial. The extreme enzyme in APE+can enhance crop stress resistance and significantly improve survival rates in extreme environments such as high temperature, drought, and high salinity. The role of extreme enzymes is like that of the COVID-19 in 2019. It is difficult to eliminate the source of the virus and the transmission route. We can only rely on "vaccination" to improve the human body's immunity, reduce the mortality rate and reduce the pathogenicity.
4. Reduce pesticide abuse
The application of oxidoreductases is like equipping plants with an "intelligent drug delivery system". With the increasing demand for agricultural products among the general public and the growing emphasis on food safety, the country has also introduced the "Agricultural Product Quality and Safety Law". However, the blind abuse of pesticides is still common, especially in the high temperature and high humidity south where crops are planted multiple seasons a year, and pests and diseases multiply repeatedly. Drug resistance is becoming stronger, and the level of medication is 5-10 times higher than usual. With such intensive frequency and dosage of medication, the prevention and control effect is getting worse and even "ineffective". The use of oxidoreductases can promote pesticide absorption, improve efficacy, reduce drug residues caused by blind overuse, and make crop growth healthier and agricultural products safer to consume.
