pot marigold (calendula officinalis l.) is a medicinal and ornamental plant. the effect of different concentrations of chlormequat (cycocel), and daminozide, two plant growth retardant, on plant height, flowering, the content of essence and some other traits in pot marigold (calendula officinalis) was assessed. plant growth retardants are commonly applied to limit stem elongation and produce a ...

The current study was carried out to evaluate the effect of some growth retardants such as alar, ethrel, cycocel and paclobutrazol with different concentrations (50, 100, 150 and 200 ppm.) on maize dwarf mosaic virus (MDMV) in vitro and in vivo. In vitro experiment, growth retardants reduced the occurrence of mosaic symptoms on maize plants. These percentages were reduced to 40%. Paclobutrazol ...

The growth of medicinal plants and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites is influenced by plant growth regulators. In this study we investigated influence offour levels (0, 500, 1000, and 1500 mg l-1) of2-chloroethyltrimethylammonium chloride (Cycocel), a plant growth retardant, on growth parameters and some biochemical parameters of cannabis plants. Cycocel only at 500 mg l-1 decreased shoot l...

Abstract A field experiment was conducted at Research Station A, which is one of the research stations affiliated with College Agricultural Engineering Sciences - University Baghdad (Al-Jadriya), a cloth house (Saran) and shading rate 25%. The study aimed to increase plant yield, whether foliar or active compounds, link water consumption presence absence leaf area (plant cutting). carried out u...

the water deficiency is one of the serious problems in the arid zones. in order to investigate the effect of cycocel on different growth aspects of two olive cultivars (mary and mission), a greenhouse experiment was conducted using three factors of: cycocel at three levels (0, 500 and 1000 mg l-1), irrigation of three levels (irrigated at 5, 10 and 15 days intervals) and tow olive cultivars (ma...

ABSTRACT- Growth retardants are natural or synthetic chemical substances which are directly applied to crops to alter some structural processes. It is expected that these alterations modify hormonal balance and growth leading to increased yield, improved crop quality or facilitated harvesting. Cycocel (CCC) or chlormequat chloride (2-chloro ethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride) as a synthetic grow...

abstract growth retardants are new chemical organic compounds that increase period of flowering, leave chlorophyll, lateral shoot number, flower number and decrease vegetative growth. they also increase dry, cold and heat tolerance. paclobutrazol and cycocel are examples of these compounds. this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of paclobutrazol and cycocel on some quantitative and qua...
