Summary:Secondary metabolites such as brassinosteroids (BS) from renewable sources having broad biological efficacy and minimal toxicity represent a rich well of possibilities for future use in human, agricultural and forestry practices. BS are the first group of steroid hormone compounds isolated from plants and acting in plants. Among the numerous physiological effects, the growth stimulation and adaptogenic activity affected by BS are particularly noteworthy. Nowadays, there is much evidence that BS have similar types of activity outside the plant kingdom and even in human bioregulation. Full text English translation is available in the on-line version.
