“…Vapor Gard (Miller Chemicals, Pennsylvania, USA) is an anti-transpirant and anti-desiccant terpene polymer-based product developed as a full-coverage spray to reduce water evapotranspiration in plants under water-stress conditions. In addition, previous uses of Vapor Gard have helped to increase the vase's life after application by reducing the infection of bacteria and fungi and lowering respiration (Nell et al, 1985). Another study also showed that applying Vapor Gard (1% solution) significantly improved the physiological state of the photosynthetic apparatus of Actinidia (kiwifruit) plants and their tolerance to water-stress conditions (Latocha et al, 2009).…”
