چکیده

The plant growth regulator BM was formulated to stimulate seed production and fruit growth. In this study, it was hypothesized that the addition of BM would increase levels of polyamines for seed induction and have a direct benefit of improving fertilization and seed set in cotton. This benefit may enhance yield under extreme environmental conditions when endogenous polyamines content is reduced.
