- Intervention effect By December all trees given 1 gram paclobutrazol flowered versus 38% of controls.
- Intervention effect Only the highest dose reduced shoot length.
- Observation In the second year only the highest repeat dose elicited a response.
- Intervention effect GA3-like shoot content declined significantly by 32% after treatment.
- Intervention effect Stem starch increased in treated trees.
- Mechanism The authors suggest starch accumulation promotes flowering under paclobutrazol.
