Abscisic acid (ABA) was quantitated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in water-stressed leaves from control apple seedlings, and also from apple seedlings treated for 28 days with paclobutrazol ([2RS, 3RS]-1-[4-chlorophenyl]-4,4-dimethyl-2-[1,2,4-triazol-1-yl] pentan-3-ol). The ELISA quantitative estimates were also validated by gas chromatography-electron capture detector and lettuc...

A field experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of different method applying Paclobutrazol on plant growth and flower yield Calendula (Calendula officinalis L.) cv. Bon Bon, during November 2022 February 2023 at Floriculture Research Field, Department Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture Technology Sciences, Pryagraj (U.P.). Different methods viz., T0 No Treatment,...

abstract paclobutrazol is one of the most important triazolic compounds which are used as growth retardants in some crops. in this study, the effect of application methods and concentration of paclobutrazol on plant height of tuberose and possibility of pot production was investigated. in the first experiment, tuberose bulbs were soaked in 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg.l-1 paclobutrazol for 10, 20 a...

effects of different paclobutrazol concentrations (0, 250, 350 and 450 mgl-1) and plantlet density (80, 100 and 120 plantlet/m2) on minituber production per plantlet in potato cultivar ‘sante’ were investigated in a factorial experiment based upon a randomized complete block design of 4 replications. paclobutrazol (cultar with 250 g/l of active ingredient) was used as foliar application at earl...

The aim of this study was to verify if a growth reduction yellow passion fruit seedlings’ morphophysiology and quality could be changed by paclobutrazol applied through seedling immersion. experiment conducted in greenhouse, with seedlings grown polyethylene tubes (290 cm3), substrate. At 40 days after sowing, the were immersed an aqueous solution at concentrations 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mg L-1. ...

The aim of this research was to study the effect of paclobutrazol pretreatment on the changes of antioxidative enzymes and antioxidants in the flooding-stressed sweetpotato Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. ‘Tainung 57’ was grown in plastic boxes in a screenhouse and maintained in optimal water conditions for 45 days followed by PBZ treatments (0 and 0.5 mg/plant) for 1 day. Then flooding was induced b...

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...

As a popular ornamental flower, potted lily is an important object of lily breeding. Paclobutrazol, a chemical growth retardation compound, is often used to dwarf plant in producing potted lilies. However, in recent years, the plants with inherited dwarf traits by using genetic engineer breeding technology are being developed. The studies on molecular basis of lily dwarfism will offer some targ...
