Plant Hormones (Phytohormones)

Plant hormones or phytohormones are small, simple chemical molecules, which are present in low concentration in plants and regulate growth, differentiation and development.


Two Categories of Phytohormones:

① Plant growth promoters: Examples are auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins.
② Plant growth inhibitors: Examples are abscisic acid, ethylene.
