Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Increasing soil drench uniconazole reduced plant height, leaf and bud number, shoot length, stem diameter and leaf size.
- Intervention effect Days to first bloom and leaf dark respiration were unaffected.
- Intervention effect Leaf chlorophyll concentration increased with uniconazole rate.
- Intervention effect Uniconazole suppressed secondary xylem development, vessel diameter, and phloem fiber number and size.
- Intervention effect Cuttings taken 35 days after treatment produced shorter plants with fewer lateral shoots and leaves than untreated cuttings.
- Intervention effect Uniconazole did not affect growth of shoot tip cuttings from new laterals collected 110 days after pruning.
- Intervention effect Young plants receiving uniconazole soil drenches were shorter, flowered later, and had fewer, smaller flowers with shorter pedicels.
- Intervention effect Foliar uniconazole gave results similar to drenching, with less shoot growth reduction at low rates.
