Tenobuzole o se alaleo lautele, faʻatonutonu lelei le tuputupu aʻe o laʻau, o loʻo i ai uma aʻafiaga faʻamaʻi ma herbicidal, ma o se inhibitor o le faʻaogaina o le gibberellin.E mafai ona pulea le tuputupu ae vegetative, taofia elongation sela, faapuupuuina internode, dwarf laau, faʻaleleia le tuputupu aʻe lateral fuga ma fuga fuga, ma faʻaleleia le faʻalavelave.O lona gaioiga e 6-10 taimi sili atu nai lo le bulobuzole, ae o lona aofaʻi o totoe i le palapala e naʻo le 1/10 o le bulobuzole, o lea e itiiti sona aʻafiaga i fua mulimuli ane, lea e mafai ona mitiia e fatu, aʻa, fuga ma lau, ma taufetuli i totonu o totoga, ae o le miti o lau e itiiti ifo i fafo.Acrotropism e iloagofie.E fetaui lelei mo le araisa ma le saito e faʻateleina ai le galueaina, pulea le maualuga o laʻau ma faʻaleleia le teteʻe i le nofo ai.O se foliga o le laau e faʻaaogaina e pulea ai le tuputupu aʻe o laau aina.E fa'aaogaina e pulea ai foliga o la'au, fa'alauiloa le eseesega o fuga ma le tele o fuga o la'au teuteu.
