✅ Explanation: Maleic hydrazide (MH) is a plant growth regulator primarily used to suppress the growth of unwanted plant parts. It achieves this by inhibiting cell division. Its common applications include:

-Controlling sucker growth: Suckers are unwanted shoots that grow from the base of plants. MH is used to control their growth in crops like tobacco and tomatoes.
