Effect of using selected growth regulators to reduce sunflower stand height
Influence of plant growth regulators chlormequat chloride, chlormequat chloride + ethephon, ethephon, and mepiquat chloride + prohexadione-Ca + pyraclostrobin + ammonium sulphate (BAS67800F + BAS00800D) on decreasing sunflower height was evaluated.

Effect of cotton seed size and seeding density on cotton growth, development, and yield
Abstract Interest in cotton seed size and seeding density exists due to increased seeding cost and overall decreased seed size of cotton varieties. An experiment was conducted in 2019 and 2020 in Jackson, TN, Starkville, MS, and Brooksville, MS, to determine the impact of seed size, seeding density, and variety on cotton plant development and yield ...

Plant growth regulators influence the height and biomass partition of castor plants [PDF]
Castor (Ricinus communis) is a drought-resistant oilseed crop. This study evaluated five plant growth regulators (PGR) on their capacity to influence stem elongation of castor plants growing under shade and measured side effects on the biomass allocation

Mepiquat chloride and paclobutrazol in size reduction of Arundina graminifolia
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of mepiquat chloride and paclobutrazol on reducing the size of Arundina graminifolia for commercialization as a flower vase. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse with 50% of shading. Plants were grown in one-liter black polypropylene vase filled with commercial substrate Plantmax ® and sand

Mepiquat Chloride Effects on Castor Growth and Yield: Spraying Time, Rate, and Management
The use of plant growth regulators on castor (Ricinus communis L.) plants may be an alternative to reduce excessive vegetative growth, which would ease harvest and even increase seed and oil yield. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of both spraying time and rate of the plant growth regulator mepiquat chloride (MC) on growth parameters, yield ...

The 2022 European Union report on pesticide residues in food
Abstract Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority provides an annual report assessing the pesticide residue levels in foods on the European market. In 2022, 96.3% of the overall 110,829 samples analysed fell below the maximum residue level (MRL), 3.7% exceeded this level, of which 2 ...
