Trinexapac-ethyl 25% EC

Trinexapac-ethyl belongs to cyclohexanedione class. It is a gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor. It controls excessive growth by reducing gibberellin levels.

It is rapidly absorbed by plant stems and leaves. It reduces plant height and increases stem strength. It promotes the growth of secondary roots and develops root systems. This leads to improved lodging resistance.

The Trinexapac-ethyl is a plant growth regulator. It has significant lodging resistance effects. Its molecular structure is stable and easily absorbed by plants. It is safe for the environment and humans.

Trinexapac-ethyl enhances the mechanical strength of stems. It thickens cell walls and strengthens intercellular connections. The agent regulates photosynthesis and transpiration. This results in sturdier plants and increased lodging resistance.

Application

1. Appropriate Timing for Using Trinexapac-ethyl

The timing of applying the Trinexapac-ethyl is crucial during wheat growth. Generally, the best time is from the end of tillering to the beginning of jointing. At this stage, the wheat stems begin to elongate rapidly. Applying the anti-lodging agent can effectively promote strong stem growth and enhance lodging resistance. Additionally, avoid using it in the late growth stage to prevent negative effects on yield and quality.

2. Properly Control the Dosage of Trinexapac-ethyl

The dosage of the anti-lodging agent is a key factor affecting its effectiveness in wheat growth regulation. If the dosage is too low, the desired effects may not be achieved. Conversely, if the dosage is too high, it can negatively impact wheat growth. Therefore, in practice, it’s important to adjust the dosage based on wheat variety, growth environment, and soil conditions. Generally, the recommended dosage is between 10-20 grams or 20-25 grams per mu, with specific amounts tailored to product instructions or actual conditions.

3. Combine with Other Growth Regulation Techniques

As a method of wheat growth regulation, the Trinexapac-ethyl can be combined with other techniques for better results. For example, it can be applied alongside nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers to improve the nutritional level of wheat and promote robust stem growth. Additionally, it can be used with other plant growth regulators like gibberellins and cytokinins to further enhance wheat’s lodging resistance.
