PROPAGATION OF PLANTS BY SOMATIC EMBRYOGENESIS
… types of callus were induced by different synthetic auxins. These types were modified when grown in different vessels. Subculture of callus resulted in root or shoot formation but no somatic embryos were produced. Multifactorial experiments were used to determine the conditions under which …

Plant Growth Regulator Sprays and Girdling: Potential Horticultural Techniques to Increase Fruit Retention and Yield of Longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) Trees in California
… Treatments included foliar applications of two synthetic auxins, 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) at 20, 60, or 100 ppm or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at 5, 25, or 45 ppm, each applied during early or late fruit set. Girdling was also conducted at early or late fruit set, for a total of …

Preemergence activity of chloroacetamide herbicides on a multiple herbicide-resistant population of waterhemp (amaranthus tuberculatus)
… protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) inhibitors, synthetic auxins, Photosystem II inhibitors (PSII), and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitors. Chloroacetamide herbicides, however, have remained effective. During research on the first HPPD-resistant population of waterhemp from …

Factors Associated with Pollinator Foraging and Floral Morphology of Lawn Weeds
… including halosulfuron, sulfentrazone, synthetic auxins, and topramezone reduced floral density, altered UV reflectance, and deterred pollinators to varying degrees on weedy flowers. Synthetic auxin herbicides completely eliminated pollinator visitation within two days and degraded white …

Uptake, translocation, and metabolism 2,4-D in enlist crops and control of drought-stressed waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) with 2,4-D and glyphosate
The synthetic auxin herbicide, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), is one of the oldest and most widely-used herbicides in the world and is a systemic, postemergence (POST) herbicide that is selective in monocots such as corn, wheat, sorghum, and turf, but dicots are sensitive to 2,4-D. Auxin …
