Mepiquat chloride-driven regulation in cotton in China: a review of physiological mechanisms, agronomic integration, and future trajectories

Journal of Cotton Research
Crop chemical regulation using plant growth regulators (PGRs) represents a key strategy for achieving high-efficiency cotton production in China. This review synthesizes four decades of research on mepiquat chloride (MC), an inhibitory PGR pivotal to ...

Regulation of Growth of Fibroblasts

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1978
Present knowledge on regulation of fibroblast growth is based on in vitro culture of fibroblasts from different sources. The research has focused on 2 problems: identification of the signal that reaches the fibroblast from outside and tells it to grow and identification of metabolic reactions inside the cell that commit it to initiate DNA synthesis ...

Characterizing Cotton Defoliation Progress via UAV-Based Multispectral-Derived Leaf Area Index and Analysis of Influencing Factors

Remote Sensing
Timely monitoring of cotton defoliation progress is crucial for optimizing the quality of mechanical harvesting. To accurately assess the defoliation status prior to mechanical picking, a field experiment was conducted in Hejian, Hebei Province, China ...

High nitrogen use efficiency in wheat is explained by a longer fast-increase period and adequate pre-anthesis nitrogen accumulation

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionNitrogen (N)-efficient wheat cultivars achieve higher grain yields with equivalent N fertilizer inputs, and the grain filling character largely determines grain weight (GW) in cereal crops.

Enhancing maize radiation use efficiency under high planting density by shaping canopy architecture with a plant growth regulator

Crop and Environment
Optimized maize (Zea mays L.) canopy architecture enhances density-tolerance. DHEAP (N, N-Diethyl-2-hexanoyl oxygen radicals-ethyl amine (2-ethyl chloride) phosphonic acid salt) has been shown to increase maize upper canopy strata compactness, but its ...

Exogenous strigolactones selectively suppress redundant tillers to increase phenotypic plasticity and grain yield in high-density and strong-tillering winter wheat

Crop Journal
The objective of this study was to identify how strigolactones (SLs) coordinate canopy architecture and yield plasticity in winter wheat at varying planting densities and genotypic tillering potentials.

Balancing mepiquat chloride and harvest aid applications for optimal cotton yield and defoliation in mechanical harvesting systems

Industrial Crops and Products
Mepiquat chloride (MC) and chemical harvest aids are key tools for managing cotton growth and facilitating mechanical harvesting, yet their combined effects on yield and defoliation efficiency remain underexplored.

The fungicide pyraclostrobin affects gene expression by altering the DNA methylation pattern in Magnaporthe oryzae

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionRice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae has long been the main cause of rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield reduction worldwide. The quinone external inhibitor pyraclostrobin is widely used as a fungicide to effectively control the spread of
