Uniconazole, a triazole derivative, is a kind of plant growth regulator. The biological efficacy of wheat seed dressed with the agent was studied. Application rates of uniconazole were 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 ppm. The results showed that the growth rate of wheat seedlings was inhibited but it can promote tillering, especially tillering before next year. Uniconazole can also raise the chlorophyll content of leaves and photosynthetic efficiency, increase the cold resistance and improve vigour of seedlings, thereby increase panicle number per plant and yields of wheat
