Uniconazole-P is a plant growth retardant and a gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor. Uniconazole-P can promote the formation of flower buds in some woody plants and influence the sex expression of cucumbers, increasing the female[1].
ChEBI: A (1E)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)pent-1-en-3-ol that has S configuration at the chiral centre. It is the enantiomer of (R)-uniconazole; the fungicide and p
ant growth retardant uniconazole is the racemic mixture comprising (R)-uniconazole and uniconazole-P.
