Plants and Their Hormones

AB
Auxinmade in apical meristems
Auxinimportant for phototropism
Auxinstimulates cell elongation
Cytokininsproduced in growing tissue
Cytokininsstimulates cytokinesis
Cytokininsdelays senesence (aging)
Gibberellinsmade in roots and young leaves
Gibberellinsimportant in bolting
Gibberellinscauses flower and fruit development
Abscisic Acidmaintains dormancy in seeds
Abscisic Acidslows growth
Abscisic Acidcloses stomata
Ethylenegas
Ethylenecauses fruit ripening
Ethylenepromotes leaf abscission (loss of leaf)
Ethyleneone bad apple spoils the whole bunch
Brassionsteriodssimilar to animal sex hormones
Brassionsteriodsslows abscission
Brassionsteriodscauses both cell elongation and cell division
Photoperiodismrelative length of night and day and the resulting physiological response
Critical Night Lengthlength of NIGHT controls flowering and other responses
