Paclobutrazol's Effect on Plant Sexual and Vegetative Development

Abstract

This research looked at how Paclobutrazol affected the 
first cycle of greenhouse-grown cultivar bananas in 
terms of vegetative development, leaf chlorophyll, 
time to flowering and harvest, yield, and fruit 
composition. One powerful selective inhibitor of GA3 
production is paclobutrazol. Paclobutrazol was shown 
to enhance the total amount of chlorophyll in leaves 
while also significantly reducing the length of the 
shoots and leaf area. It has been observed that 
paclobutrazol increases fruit tree output. Apple fruit 
quality, pH, acidity, and soluble solid concentration 
were found to be unaffected by PP333.
