Forchlorfenuron

Forchlorfenuron is a plant growth regulator. It stimulates fruit growth, as well as increases fruit size and ripening rate, in kiwifruit (A. chinensis) when applied topically at a concentration of 40 mg/L. Forchlorfenuron accelerates fruit growth and increases rind thickness in watermelons (C. lanatus). Formulations containing forchlorfenuron have been used as plant growth regulators and herbicides in agriculture.Formal Name: N-(2-chloro-4-pyridinyl)-N'-phenyl-urea. CAS Number: 68157-60-8.
