CmBr Confers Fruit Bitterness Under CPPU Treatment in Melon [PDF]
Summary Many biotic or abiotic factors such as CPPU (N‐(2‐chloro‐pyridin‐4‐yl)‐N′‐phenylurea), a growth regulator of numerous crops, can induce bitterness in cucurbits. In melon, cucurbitacin B is the major compound leading to bitterness.

Effect of CPPU on Carbohydrate and Endogenous Hormone Levels in Young Macadamia Fruit. [PDF]
N-(2-Chloro-4-pyridyl)-N'-phenylurea (CPPU) is a highly active cytokinin-like plant growth regulator that promotes chlorophyll biosynthesis, cell division, and cell expansion. It also increases fruit set and accelerates fruit enlargement.

Gibberellin biosynthesis is required for CPPU-induced parthenocarpy in melon. [PDF]
Abstract Spraying N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea (CPPU), an exogenous cytokinin (CK) growth regulator, is the conventional method for inducing fruit set during melon (Cucumis melo L.) production; however, the mechanism by which CPPU induces fruit set is unclear.
