  2. Plant hormone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_hormone

    Early in the study of plant hormones, "phytohormone" was the commonly used term, but its use is less widely applied now. Plant hormones are not nutrients, but chemicals that in small amounts promote and influence the growth, [13] development, and differentiation of cells and tissues. The biosynthesis of plant hormones within plant tissues is ...

  3. Cytokinin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinin

    While cytokinin action in vascular plants is described as pleiotropic, this class of plant hormones specifically induces the transition from apical growth to growth via a three-faced apical cell in moss protonema. This bud induction can be pinpointed to differentiation of a specific single cell, and thus is a very specific effect of cytokinin. [18]

  4. Gibberellic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibberellic_acid

    Gibberellic acid (also called gibberellin A3 or GA 3) is a hormone found in plants and fungi. [1] Its chemical formula is C 19 H 22 O 6. When purified, it is a white to pale-yellow solid. Plants in their normal state produce large amounts of GA3. It is possible to produce the hormone industrially using microorganisms. [2]

  5. Gibberellin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibberellin

    The function of CPS and KS in plants is performed by a single enzyme in fungi (CPS/KS). [21] [22] [23] In plants the Gibberellin biosynthesis genes are found randomly on multiple chromosomes, but in fungi are found on one chromosome . [24] [25] Plants produce low amount of Gibberellic Acid, therefore is produced for industrial purposes by ...

  6. Ethylene (plant hormone) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_(plant_hormone)

    The plant hormone ethylene is a combatant for salinity in most plants. Ethylene is known for regulating plant growth and development and adapted to stress conditions through a complex signal transduction pathway. Central membrane proteins in plants, such as ETO2, ERS1 and EIN2, are used for ethylene signaling in many plant growth processes.

  8. Strigolactone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strigolactone

    The role of strigolactones as branching inhibitor hormone was discovered because of the use of a new set of mutant plants. [5] These mutants presented excessive growth in the axillary buds, which induced their terminal stem to start branching abnormally. [5]
