Chlorcyclamide is a chemical compound that acts as a plant growth regulator, primarily used in agriculture to enhance crop yields and regulate plant growth. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of gibberellins, a class of plant hormones involved in cell elongation and growth, leading to more compact and robust plant structures. This mechanism is useful in improving the quality and quantity of various crops, particularly in reducing excessive vegetative growth. Chlorcyclamide has applications in the cultivation of fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants to optimize harvest and improve plant health.
