to evaluate the growth regulatory effect of chlormequat chloride (ccc) under drought stress conditions on three barley cultivars, a field study was conducted under badjgah agro climatic conditions (altitude 1810 m, longitude 52° 46´, and latitude 29° 50´) during 2003-2004 growing season. a randomized complete block based split- split plot of four replications was employed with two moisture leve...

A research trial was conducted during Rabi season, 2022 at crop farm, Department of Agronomy Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj Uttar Pradesh India. The soil in experimental field sandy loam texture, having alkaline reaction (pH 7.7) with very low organic carbon (0.44%), available higher-level N (171.48 kg/ha), P (27.0 kg/ha) higher level K (291.2 kg/ha)...

The effects of the plant growth promoter gibberellic acid (GA3) and plant growth retardant chlormequat chloride (CCC) on biomass and quality of Angelica dahurica var. formosana plants were investigated employing physiological and biochemical methods. Plants were sprayed with GA3 or CCC at rosette stage and coumarin content was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) after harv...

In general, lodging has been controlled by restricting nitrogen fertilizer application and/or using short cultivars. Growth retardants can also be used to solve this problem.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of rates and application times of three growth retardants on Pioneiro wheat cultivar. The trial was carried out in Viçosa-MG, from May to September 2005, in a factorial...

Plant growth regulators such as mepiquat chloride (MC) and chlormequat (CCC) are used to establish the balance between vegetative generative in cotton. This study was conducted compare different doses application time of CCC with MC un-treatment (control). The seven treatments including control (non-treatment), T1 (three sprays chloride), T2 (two T3 (0.4 L ha-1 CCC), T4 (0.5 T5 (0.6 CCC) T6 (0....

The effect of different types of plant growth retardants on fungal gibberellin (GA) formation has been studied in cultures of Gibberella fujikuroi and Sphaceloma manihoticola. Quaternary ammonium compounds (chlormequat chloride, mepiquat chloride, Amo-1618), triazoles (uniconazole and several experimental compounds), and the norbornanodiazetine tetcyclacis inhibited GA biosynthesis in both fung...

Lodging is a significant risk in intense cereal production and may severely reduce seed yield and quality. Lodging is strongly influenced by cultivar and husbandry factors including sowing date, seed rate, drilling depth and rate of nitrogen application. A number of PGRs are known that reduce stem length, thereby lowering the leverage of the ear and other parts of the shoot. Increased stem stab...
