Mepiquat Chloride and Irrigation versus Cotton Growth and Development

Agronomy Journal, 1992
AbstractCotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) produces excessive vegetative growth when grown under optimum water and nutrient conditions. The plant growth regulator Mepiquat Chloride (MC); 1,l‐dimethyl piperidinium chloride reduces vegetative growth and can promote early maturity.

Cotton Response to Mepiquat Chloride¹

Agronomy Journal, 1985
AbstractThe potential for mepiquat chloride (1,1‐dimethylpiperidinium chloride) to control excess vegetative growth and increase yield of cotton (Gossypium hirsutumL.) was evaluated under a wide range of environmental conditions in 35 replicated experiments conducted in the San Joaquin Valley of California from 1979 to 1983.

Cotton Cultivar Response to Mepiquat Chloride¹

Agronomy Journal, 1983
AbstractThe effects of mepiquat chloride (1,1‐dimethylpiperidinium chloride) on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth and yield have been widely studied but few studies have investigated cultivar response to this plant growth regulator. Since the response to a pesticide or a plant growth regulator may vary among cultivars, a knowledge of cultivar ...

Developing management options for mepiquat chloride in tropical winter season cotton

Field Crops Research, 2002
Abstract Little research had been conducted on managing cotton growth using mepiquat chloride (MC) during the tropical winter season. Three experiments were conducted over three seasons. Early season internodes (first nine nodes) were long compared to temperate climates.

Modeling mepiquat chloride-temperature interactions in cotton: the model

Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 1993
Abstract The plant growth regulator mepiquat chloride (1,1-dimethylpiperidinium chloride) is used to reduce vegetative growth in cotton. It is commonly used to control the side effects of optimization of inputs such as water and nitrogen. It has been shown that mepiquat chloride (MC) suppresses excessive plant growth by decreasing plant height ...

Increase in Drought Resistance of Cotton Seedlings Treated with Mepiquat Chloride

Agronomy Journal, 1992
AbstractUnder rainfed conditions, plant establishment is often low in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) because of water limitations. Increasing drought resistance of cotton seedlings by accelerating root growth thus has important, practical implications.

Mepiquat chloride (PIX)-induced changes in photosynthesis and growth of cotton

Plant Growth Regulation, 1996
Mepiquat chloride (N, N-dimethylpiperidinium chloride), well known as PIX, is a potential systemic plant growth regulator. The effects of PIX on plant height, stem elongation, leaf area, net photosynthetic rates, chlorophyll content, sucrose and starch levels, and RuBP carboxylase activity in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv.

Effects of Mepiquat Chloride on Physiology of Soybean under Drought Stress

LEGUME RESEARCH - AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL
Background: Drought is an important factor restricting the development of agriculture. In recent years, plant growth regulators have achieved more results in improving crop stress resistance. The physiological mechanism of exogenous application of mepiquat chloride on soybean seedlings has undergone significant changes under drought stress. Methods: In

Influence of Plant Density on Cotton Response to Mepiquat Chloride Application

Agronomy Journal, 2006
Increased yield potential associated with full‐season cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) varieties can be offset by excessive vegetative growth that leads to undesirable fruit shed and boll rot. Producers often make multiple mepiquat chloride (1,1‐dimethyl‐piperidinium chloride) applications with excessive seasonal use rates to combat this problem, often ...

PHYSIOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL EFFECTS OF MEPIQUAT CHLORIDE ON GROUNDNUT (Arachis hypogaea)

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1998
Experiments were carried out to understand the physiological effects of Mepiquat Chloride (MC), 1, 1-dimethyl piperidinium chloride on groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) at different concentrations and in comparison with CCC (2-chloro ethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride).
