Description

Chlormequat is a plant growth regulator that is used to inhibit the elongation of roots and shoots. It also inhibits the synthesis of cell wall components, causing cell death. Chlormequat has been shown to have a positive effect on plant growth by increasing water and nutrient uptake. The optimum concentration of chlormequat for plant growth varies depending on the type of plant. It can be determined by measuring the amount of phosphorus pentoxide in tissue culture samples. Chlormequat also blocks signal pathways that are activated by bacterial colony-stimulating factors, inhibiting bacterial growth. The analytical method for determining chlormequat concentrations in plants is based on histological analysis.
