Paclobutrazol (PBZ) is a plant growth regulator that inhibits the biosynthesis of gibberellins, plant hormones responsible for promoting growth. By suppressing gibberellin production, PBZ effectively reduces internodal elongation, resulting in shorter, sturdier plants with enhanced root systems. It also influences other physiological processes, such as promoting flowering and improving stress tolerance.

PBZ is widely used in ornamental plant cultivation to control excessive growth, improve plant shape, and enhance flowering.
Applied to various fruit and vegetable crops, PBZ promotes early fruiting, increases yield, and improves fruit quality by regulating plant growth.
In turfgrass management, PBZ reduces mowing frequency and enhances turf quality by controlling vertical growth.
Arborists use PBZ to manage the growth of trees and shrubs, especially in urban environments, to reduce maintenance needs and improve structural integrity.
PBZ application in cereal crops like maize and wheat strengthens stems, reducing the risk of lodging and improving grain yield.
