Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of environment
and several plant growth regulators on the physiology, quality,
and agronomic performance of snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. )
and spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ). The potassium salts of
naphthenic acid and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, received particular
attention.
Application of potassium...
Four experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of
growth-promoting treatments on potato sprouts and plantlets grown in
vitro, and to determine the relationships between growth rate and
eradication of PVX and PVS through shoot-tip culture.
The approach consisted of exposing plant material to potential
growth-regulating treatments, selecting the more...
Growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) may be an important
factor in the regulation of growth as well as an indirect,
less invasive way of predicting the status of growth hormone
receptors. Several factors (age, nutritional status, sex,
and glucocorticoid administration) have been reported to
influence circulating growth hormone (GH) levels,...
