Abstract

Benzothiazole compounds of the following structural formula modify the growth and development of plants: ##STR1## wherein U is selected from -hydrogen, -halogen, -lower alkyl, -lower haloalkyl, -lower alkoxy, -phenyl, and -phenoxy optionally carrying -halogen and -lower haloalkyl substituents; PA1 V is selected from -hydrogen and -halogen, or U and V taken together are --C.sub.4 H.sub.4 -- joining adjacent ring positions; PA1 Y is selected from -hydrogen and -lower alkoxy; PA1 Z is cyclic and either (a) -phenyl optionally carrying 1 or 2 substituents independently selected from -halogen, -nitro, or two substituents taken together are --C.sub.4 H.sub.4 -- joining adjacent ring positions, or (b) Z may be a saturated or partially unsaturated carbocycle, optionally carrying a bicyclic --CH.sub.2 -- bridge, or an aromatic heterocycle containing 1 or 2 nitrogen atoms; and PA1 Z includes a 2-oxycarbonyl substituent of the formula EQU --COOW PA1 in which W is selected from -hydrogen, -lower alkyl optionally substituted with -alkoxycarbonyl, and an agriculturally acceptable cation.
