Other claims from this paper (19)
- Intervention effect Maleic hydrazide increased leaves and crowns per plant.
- Intervention effect Maleic hydrazide increased mother plant vigour.
- Intervention effect Maleic hydrazide reduced runner length and runner plant number.
- Intervention effect Maleic hydrazide decreased the fresh-weight top-root ratio through suppressed top growth.
- Intervention effect Maleic hydrazide did not affect root growth.
- Intervention effect At 16 days, maleic hydrazide increased dry weight, ash and sugar percentages in tops.
- Intervention effect At 16 days, maleic hydrazide increased starch percentage and the carbohydrate-nitrogen ratio in tops.
- Intervention effect At 16 days, maleic hydrazide decreased total nitrogen percentage in tops.
- Intervention effect Four 10-ounce applications gave inadequate results.
- Intervention effect Three 25-ounce applications gave excellent runner control and vigour equal to hand removal.
- Intervention effect Two 40-ounce applications controlled runners very well, with less vigour than three 25-ounce applications.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid did not affect numbers of leaves, crowns or runners.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid did not affect flower number.
- Intervention effect At 16 days, gibberellic acid increased fresh top weight and top-root ratio while root weight was unchanged.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid hastened flower truss emergence and flowering but did not hasten fruit maturation.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid reduced fruit set, crop weight and berry size.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid increased fruit sugar near maturity and peduncle and petiole length during active growth.
- Intervention effect At 16 days, gibberellic acid lowered dry matter, sugar and starch percentages and the carbohydrate-nitrogen ratio in tops.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid did not change ash or nitrogen percentage in tops.
