Abstract
Sprays of N-dimethylaminomaleamic acid were found to retard the growth of a variety of plants, including legumes, vine crops, potatoes, and ornamentals. It was readily translocated, had a long residual action, was relatively nonphytotoxic, and did not appear to affect adversely root, vegetative, or reproductive development.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
