USE OF METAMITRON AS AN APPLE THINNER [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of metamitron or metamitron plus benzyladenine as a post-bloom thinner on ‘Baronesa’ and ‘Fuji’ apples. Three experiments (rate, timing and BA combination) were conducted during two crop seasons, 2013/14

Metamitron in the chemical thinning of ‘PS 10711’ peach trees [PDF]
O raleio químico de frutos pode ser uma prática alternativa ao raleio manual. O raleio manual necessita ser executado num curto período da frutificação, mas a falta de mão de obra e a onerosidade dos custos da operação cada vez mais dificultam o seu ...

Metamitron, a Photosynthetic Electron Transport Chain Inhibitor, Modulates the Photoprotective Mechanism of Apple Trees [PDF]
Chemical thinning of apple fruitlets is an important practice as it reduces the natural fruit load and, therefore, increases the size of the final fruit for commercial markets.

Analysis of fruit thinning effect and underlying mechanism using metamitron on ‘Gala’ apples [PDF]
To address the problems of artificial apple thinning, which are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient, this study examined the fruit thinning effect and mechanism of spraying metamitron at the young fruit stage on Gala apples grown on dwarfing

Postbloom Thinning of ‘Bartlett’ Pear with Metamitron [PDF]
Metamitron is a relatively new postbloom thinning compound for pome fruits that inhibits the photosystem II (PS II) pathway of photosynthesis. Reduced assimilation of carbohydrate by metamitron action may lead to a carbohydrate deficit that promotes ...

Metamitron and Shade Effects on Leaf Physiology and Thinning Efficacy of Malus × domestica Borkh [PDF]
Thinning strategies, namely shade or photosynthetic inhibitors, rely on the reduction of carbon supply to the fruit below the demand, causing fruit abscission.

Photochemical reactions of metamitron
Abstract Photochemical reactions of metamitron (a 4-amino substituted as-triazin-5(4H)-one) were investigated including UV- and phosphorescence spectroscopy, determination of quantum yields, comparison with measurements in sunlight and products found.
