Nanofibrillation Is an Effective Method to Produce Chitin Derivatives for Induction of Plant Responses in Soybean
Chitin, an <i>N</i>-acetylglucosamine polymer, is well-known to have unique biological functions, such as growth promotion and disease resistance induction in plants. Chitin has been expectedly used for improving crop yield using its functions; however, chitin derivatives, such as chitin...
