Profile
- First marketed in 1986
- Inhibits ent-kaurene oxidas (KO), which converts ent-kaurene to ent-kaurenoic acid, thus gibberellin biosynthesis
- Also acts as an inhibitor of sterol biosynthesis by inhabitation of demethylation
Key Features & Benefits
- High-strength formulation (250 g/L): Provides precise and consistent plant growth regulation
- Triazole-based PGR: Inhibits gibberellin biosynthesis, reducing excessive vegetative growth
- Compact and uniform growth: Promotes shorter internodes, sturdier stems, and improved canopy structure
- Enhanced flowering and fruit quality: Encourages better flowering, fruit set, and uniformity in many tree crops
Toxicity
Acute oral (LD50, mg/kg) mice – 490
