although there was a significant difference only at 21 and 28 DAA (Figure 2and Table 2). In general, these two treatments with daminozide were those with the greatest ability to reduce plant height, mainly from the 35th DAA. The dose of 6 g ha-¹ of TIBA was the one that produced the greater reduction on plant height for the same growth regulator,with emphasis on the 21th and 28th DAA.
