Scientists develope unique in silico model to predict agrochemical activity of small-molecule organic compounds

Scientists from MIPT (Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology) and MSU (Moscow State University), under the leadership of Yan Ivanenkov, developed the first computer model predicting agrochemical activity, the beneficial influence of simple molecules on plants. With the help of an independent test set and the results of their own study, they showed that the model has a high predictive power. The work is published in the scientific journal Phytochemistry.
