    Question: Which of these is not a growth promoter? (RJ AA0 2012)

    Options:

    Cytokinin
    Abscisic acid
    Auxin
    Gibberellins

    ✅Explanation: Abscisic acid is a plant hormone that acts as a growth inhibitor. It plays a role in processes like dormancy and stress response.

    📌 Other Options Explanations:

    ✏️Auxins:
    -Promote cell elongation and growth.
    -Involved in apical dominance and root formation.
    -Stimulate fruit development and inhibit abscission (dropping off).

    ✏️Gibberellins:
    -Promote stem elongation and seed germination.
    -Break dormancy in seeds and buds.
    -Stimulate flowering and fruit development.

    ✏️Cytokinins:
    -Promote cell division and shoot development.
    -Delay leaf senescence (aging).
    -Involved in nutrient mobilization and tissue growth.

    • Other Important Plant Hormones:

    ✏️Ethylene:
    -Regulates fruit ripening and flower wilting.
    -Promotes leaf abscission and senescence.
    -Involved in responses to stress and pathogen resistance.

    ✏️Abscisic Acid (ABA):
    -Induces stomatal closure during water stress.
    -Promotes seed dormancy and inhibits germination.
    -Involved in stress responses and regulation of growth.
