Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Early-bloom mepiquat chloride reduced plant height in most environments.
- Intervention effect Early-bloom mepiquat chloride had variable effects on other growth characteristics.
- Intervention effect Early-bloom mepiquat chloride increased terminal regrowth in some environments.
- Intervention effect Early-bloom mepiquat chloride reduced basal regrowth in one year.
- Intervention effect Early-bloom mepiquat chloride had no effect on basal regrowth-to-height ratio.
- Recommendation The authors conclude cutout mepiquat chloride offers little or no management, yield or fiber quality advantage.
