Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Ethrel spraying did not reduce shoot dry weight of peanut plants.
- Intervention effect Ethrel concentrations below 5 × 10 −4 M did not inhibit flowering of peanut plants.
- Intervention effect All Ethrel concentrations except 10 −5 M reduced production of mature pods and seeds.
- Intervention effect Three applications of 5 × 10 −4 M Ethrel at two-week intervals caused prolonged inhibition of the onset of flowering.
- Intervention effect Ethrel treatments beginning at 4 weeks after emergence caused eventual cessation of flowering.
- Intervention effect All Ethrel treatments reduced production of mature pods and seeds.
- Intervention effect A single 5 × 10 −4 M Ethrel application at 6 weeks did not reduce peanut yield.
- Intervention effect Ethrel applied at 0, 0.14 and 0.28 kg active ingredient/ha in 1976 field trials had no significant effect on yield or value of Tanmut 74.
- Intervention effect The 4-week Ethrel application at both rates did not affect peanut value.
- Intervention effect Ethrel treatment at 10 weeks did not affect peanut yields.
- Intervention effect Ethrel treatment at 10 weeks reduced peanut value, indicating delayed fruit maturation.
- Intervention effect Ethrel treatment readily regulated flowering of peanut plants.
