ineffective, whereas in the case of the freesia ( Freesia ), lily ( Lilium ), and tulip ( Tulipa ) species, it has a positive effect in controlling the height of the marketable plant ( De Hertogh and Le Nard, 1993 ). The objective of this study was to

first-year establishment of turf-type tall fescue in semiarid climates, these preliminary findings support use of a mowing height of 2 inches combined with the selective planting of ‘Apache’, ‘Aztec’, and ‘Crossfire II’ over other cultivar × mowing

, 1991 ; Pekic et al., 1995 ). Goreta et al. (2007) found that poblano pepper seedling plant height was significantly shorter when sprayed with 2000 mg·L −1 ABA in a foliar application compared with a control at 3 and 6 d after transplanting (DAT

with excellent disease resistance and unique flower form with tubular ray florets. However, like with most R. subtomentosa, this cultivar tends to be too tall (greater than 1 m) for many landscape uses. A reduction in height of these plants as well as

Controlling plant stem elongation is common in ornamental plant production. Height control is necessary to meet industry standards for target plant height ( Fisher and Heins, 1995 ), to increase plant aesthetics by producing more compact plants

area, flower height) supplemental irrigation and fertilization influenced plant growth for five of the nine species tested. Details of landscape performance, including plant survival and visual quality ratings are detailed below for each species

contributed to improved mechanical harvest efficiency; however, additional research was needed to identify the most important determinants of mechanical harvest quality/efficiency, such as plant height, plant width, number of basal branches, basal stem

grain-type soybean report that plant density influences plant height ( Matsuo et al., 2018 ; Mehmet, 2008 ), number of main stem branches ( Agudamu and Shiraiwa, 2016 ; Board and Kahlon, 2013 ), and plant biomass ( Matsuo et al., 2018 ). Companies

recorded for important traits; statistical analysis indicated significant differences ( P < 0.001) between diploid and tetraploid plants with regard to morphological characteristics. Compared with the diploid plants, the height of the tetraploid plants was

characterize the early height growth and water use of seedlings from six sources of Quercus native to Italy; to explore the rooting potential of semihardwood stem cuttings taken from these stock plants; and to determine if early height growth or water use
