چکیده

Since the biological effects of maleic hydrazide (MH) were first described by SCHOENE and HOFFMANN (4), a great many papers have appeared describing the effects of that compound on growth and flowering. NAYLOR (3) sprayed tobacco, maize and cocklebur with various concentrations ranging from .025% to .2%o and obtained either suppression or delay of visible flowering. WHITE and KENNARD (5) delayed flowering in raspberries without any further deleterious effects on fruit set. FILLMORE (1) effectively inhibited vegetative growth and delayed flowering in Vaccinium corymbosum for two weeks. In an attempt to clarify the nature of the demonstrated inhibition of flowering by MH, the following experiments were conducted.
