Description: Three experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of paclobutrazol on shoot and cambial growth of nine tree species located in Indiana and Louisiana, U.S. In Experiment I, white oak (Quercus alba L.) and red oak (Q. rubra L.) in Indiana were treated in April 1995 with paclobutrazol using the soil drench method. In Experiment II, paclobutrazol was applied in April 1996, usi...

Product % Label Rate Active ingredient Paclobutrazol ounces/1,000 sq.ft . Paclobutrazol/Acre Andersons TGR (Turf Growth Regulator) and Turf Enhancer formulations are effective tools for reducing existing Poa annua in turf Paclobutrazol, the active ingredient in TGR and Turf Enhancer, is a root-absorbed gibberillic acid inhibitor. Since paclobutrazol is a growth regulator, you will see a differe...

Studies often neglect the different trends between enantiomers in soil chiral contaminants. In present study, paclobutrazol was chosen as target analyte and selective degradation patterns of this pesticide were investigated soils. After 14 days culture, kinetics results demonstrated process two conforms to first‑order equation, rates significantly (paired t-test, P < 0.05). The rate (2S,3S)-...

Under some cultivation conditions, excessive growth of the pseudostem of banana plants can be considered a limiting factor, and thus, the use of growth regulators can constitute a valid alternative. This work aimed to evaluate the action of paclobutrazol on the growth of the pseudostem of banana plants and other characteristics of their development. An experiment was installed with five paclobu...

Background Paclobutrazol is a regulator of vegetal growth that remains active in the soil and can affect the growth and the development of subsequent cultures. Experiments in two soils (A and B) with and without addition of inoculum or mineral medium were performed to investigate the biodegradation of paclobutrazol. The inoculum contained a mixed culture of three strains of bacteria isolated by...

If pesticide residues are detected at over the uniform limit (0.01 ppm) in processed foods, the maximum residue limits of pesticides in each ingredient should be considered. For that purpose, analysis of pesticide residues in the ingredients would be required, but in many cases it is difficult to obtain ingredients from the same lot, or the processed foods may have been manufactured overseas. T...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of paclobutrazol as an anti-gibberellin on some morpho-physiological characteristics of Petunia × grandiflora ‘Bravo Blue’, and determine the optimum concentration of paclobutrazol for drought resistance in this plant. The experiment was carried out as factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications in greenhouse. T...

Ornamental plants have now developed as souvenirs given at a wedding. Requirements for souvenirs, the should be tiny, lush, and much of flowers. So its growth needs to modified using regulator paclobutrazol. This study aimed determine response angelonia application paclobutrazol several levels concentration which has best appearance plants. research method used randomized block design (RBD) wit...
