Abstract
Morphactins, mixed with non-phytotoxic paraffinic, low molecular weight oil, were applied as bark bands and tested for growth inhibition of trees growing under field conditions. Three species were tested: Monterey pine (Pinus radiata D. Don.), olive (Olea europaea L. cv. Manzanillo) and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus Labill). Shoot elongation was inhibited in all three species, but sensitivity to the treatment varied.

Abstract
Sprays of a plant growth regulator ammonium ethyl carbamoylphosphonoate (Krenite), applied to top regrowth of mature Lisbon lemon trees [Citrus limon (L.) Burmann] resulted in significant inhibition of growth for over 1 year. At concentrations above 0.2% there was excessive foliar and small branch damage.
