Compositions and methods for regulating plant growth are disclosed. The compositions comprise a compound of the formula R-OH = N-R min wherein R is selected from the group consisting of phenyl, phenylethenyl and alkyl having one to twelve carbons and R min is selected from the group consisting of phenyl and alkyl having one to twelve carbons in combination with an inert carrier. Dimers and salts of the above compounds are also disclosed. The compounds, preferably in an aqueous carrier, are applied to oil, fiber, root or grain crops in amounts ranging from 0.01 to 0.5 pounds of active ingredient per acre. Application may be effected by soil treatment either prior to or after planting or by treatment of the emergent plant. Application of the compositions generally results in increased plane height, plant weight and/or yield. |
