Common name: Mepiquat Chloride（CAS NO: 24307-26-4）
IUPAC name: 1,1-dimethylpiperidinium chloride
Chemical Abstracts name: 1,1-dimethylpiperidinium chloride
CAS No: 24307-26-4
Mode of action:
Absorbed by leaf, root, stem, and transited to all the plant. Reduce the activity of gibberellin inside crop, so to restrain the elongation of cells, and control the crop height.
Application:
Generally Mepiquat is used to reduce stem growth and increase early maturity in cotton.Proper management during four growth stages of cotton can improve the production, namly soaking of seeds, bud stage, incipient blooming stage, and fullbloom stage.
It has higher activity on cotton, wheat, tomato and grape. It can control the growth of cotton, and has obvious inhibitory effect on the height of cotton plant and the length of fruit branches, and makes the plant type tightly rebellious, and the closure is delayed, reducing the loss of middle and lower cotton peaches.
For the vigorous growth of cotton, when the buds are to the beginning of the flower, the spray of 0.75g/100m2 of mepazine is applied to spray 11.3-15kg of water for a period of 25d, which generally increases the yield by 10%-20%. Tomatoes were sprayed with 100mg/L meperidine twice before and during the initial flowering period. The solution was 6kg/100m2, which could effectively control the axillary buds, increase the amount of flowers in the early stage, promote the early fruit setting, reduce the falling flowers and fruit, and increase the yield by more than 20%. Apple sprays the leaf surface with 25-150mg/L liquid, which can increase calcium ions and make the core smaller. When the citrus is sprayed with 25~100mg/L liquid, the fruit can be premature and the flesh is increased. It can be used for ornamental plants to inhibit plant growth, make plants firm, resist lodging and improve color.
