Regulation of soybean drought response by mepiquat chloride pretreatment [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 IntroductionSoybean is the world’s most important cultivated crop, and drought can affect their growth and, eventually, yields. Foliar application of mepiquat chloride (MC) can potentially alleviate the damage caused by drought stress in plants; however,

Mepiquat chloride inhibits soybean growth but improves drought resistance [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Soybeans are an important economic crop. As the most widely used growth regulator globally, the molecular mechanism of mepiquat chloride (DPC) in soybean remains unknown. In this study, RNA sequencing technology combined with ultra-performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry were used to analyze the changes in the leaf transcriptome ...

Mechanism of Mepiquat Chloride Regulating Soybean Response to Drought Stress Revealed by Proteomics [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Soybeans are the main sources of oil and protein for most of the global population. As the population grows, so does the demand for soybeans. However, drought is a major factor that limits soybean production. Regulating soybean response to drought stress using mepiquat chloride (MC) is a feasible method; however, its mechanism is still unclear.

Global transcriptome changes of elongating internode of sugarcane in response to mepiquat chloride. [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2021 Abstract Background: Mepiquat chloride (DPC) is an extensively used chemical to control internode growth and compact canopies in cultured plants. Previous studies suggested that DPC could inhibit gibberellin biosynthesis in sugarcane. Unfortunately, the molecular mechanism underlying the suppressive effects of DPC on plant growth is still ...

Cotton response to mepiquat chloride and temperature [PDF]
Scientia Agricola, 2013 Gibberellin inhibitor growth regulators are used for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) canopy manipulation to avoid excess growth and yield losses. However, under temperatures below or over the optimum for cotton production the effect of mepiquat chloride ...

Modelling the structural response of cotton plants to mepiquat chloride and population density. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2014 Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) has indeterminate growth. The growth regulator mepiquat chloride (MC) is used worldwide to restrict vegetative growth and promote boll formation and yield. The effects of MC are modulated by complex interactions with growing conditions (nutrients, weather) and plant population density, and as a result the effects on plant ...

Determination of mepiquat chloride in cotton crops and soil and its dissipation rates
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2012 A simple, accurate and highly sensitive analytical method was developed in this study for determining the residues and dissipation dynamics of mepiquat chloride in soil and cotton crops (including plant and seed). The samples in this method were directly extracted with methanol-ammonium acetate solution and followed by analysis of high performance ...
