Chlorpropham is a carbamate herbicide and plant growth regulator. Chlorpropham inhibits mitosis and cell division by interfering with the organisation of the spindle microtubules[1][2].
Chlorpropham (1-20 μM; 6 d) inhibits cell division of D. salina cultures[2].
Chlorpropham (10 or 20 μM; 6 d) shows increasement of phytoene in D. salina cultures under red LED light[2].
