Daminozide
Type: Plant Growth Regulator
Mode of Action: Inhibiting the synthesis of gibberellins
Common Product Names: Dazide 85 WSG & B-Nine
What is it?
Daminozide is a synthetic plant growth regulator primarily used in the horticultural industry to manage the growth and development of plants. It is particularly popular in the production of ornamental plants and fruits such as apples and cherries. By applying Daminozide, growers can produce more uniform plants, control plant height, and enhance the quality and appearance of fruits. The compound is typically applied as a foliar spray and is absorbed by the plant, where it exerts its growth-regulating effects over time.
How does it work?
Daminozide works by inhibiting the natural production of gibberellins, which are plant hormones that promote cell elongation. By reducing gibberellin levels, Daminozide slows down the growth of stems and leaves, leading to more compact and bushier plants. This is particularly beneficial in ornamental plant production, where uniformity and controlled growth are critical. In fruit production, Daminozide can improve fruit set, enhance color, and increase the shelf life of the produce. The results of Daminozide application are typically seen within a few weeks, depending on the plant species and environmental conditions.
