Mepiquat chloride promotes cotton lateral root formation by modulating plant hormone homeostasis
Abstract Background Mepiquat chloride (MC), a plant growth regulator, enhances root growth by promoting lateral root formation in cotton. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this phenomenon is still unknown. Methods In this study, we used 10 cotton (Gossypium hirsutum Linn.) cultivars to...
