Mepiquat chloride | 24307-26-4
Product Description:
Mepiquat chloride is a plant growth regulator that is commonly used in agriculture to control plant height and increase crop yields. It belongs to the class of compounds known as quaternary ammonium salts. Mepiquat chloride primarily works by inhibiting the production of gibberellins, which are plant hormones responsible for promoting stem elongation. By reducing gibberellin levels, mepiquat chloride helps to prevent excessive vegetative growth and lodging (falling over) in crops such as cotton, wheat, and tobacco. Additionally, it can enhance fruit and flower development by redirecting the plant's energy from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. Mepiquat chloride is typically applied as a foliar spray or soil drench, and its use is regulated to ensure proper application and minimize environmental impacts.
