Three experiments were performed. The first experiment used two rates of N-P-K and three rates of dolomite fertilization. The second experiment used five rates of paclobutrazol applied as a soil drench. In the third experiment, four gibberellin biosynthesis inhibiting growth regulators were used. These were, paclobutrazol, ancymidol, and chlormequat, applied as foliar sprays, and paclobutrazol and daminozide applied as soil drenches.application/pdfCopyright is held by the author who has granted the Oklahoma State University Library the non-exclusive right to share this material in its institutional repository.
