The use of N-substituted oxobenzothiazolines as plant growth regulators and plant growth regulating compositions containing N-substituted oxobenzothiazolines.

摘要

This invention relates to novel N-substituted oxobenzothiazolines and to their use in a method of regulating leguminous plant growth as well as to plant growth regulant compositions comprising these novel N-substituted oxobenzothiazolines.

These novel N-substituted oxobenzothiazolines are characterised by the formula
