Chapter 33, Problem 13TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Plant hormones are chemical messengers that are produced in trace amounts but profoundly affect the growth and development of a plant. Plant hormones perform various functions such as promoting growth, breaking dormancy, mediating fruit ripening, and providing tolerance to stress.
