Plant hormones can exert strong, seemingly independent actions on plant growth and development. Auxin generally promotes growth; cytokinins delay leaf senescence and influence cell division; abscisic acid causes bud dormancy and promotes stomatal closure; gibberellins function in seed germination, and so on. Of course, in reality, these hormones exert many of their effects through a complex ser...

Fenugreek is an medicinal plant that use in disease some therapy. This plant use  for blood lipids and sugar decreasing in diabetic and non diabetic peoples and have antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The plant contains active constituents such as alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, Saponins etc. It is an old medicinal plant. It has been commonly used as a traditional food and medicine. Fenug...

It has been several decades since Skoog and Miller described the contrasting behavior of auxin and cytokinin in promoting the growth of root and shoot, respectively [1]. In recent years, a lot of progress has been made in understanding the regulation of stem cell niche and cell fate in both shoot and root apical meristems. Developmental processes such as the maintenance of root meristems [2], l...

Vegetative growth of plants can be influenced by internal factors including hormones (Plant Growth Regulators). The purpose the study is to determine response soybean ( Glycine max L.Merril) after application some plant regulators (PGRs). research method used was Completely Randomized Design (CRD). There were four levels extract concentration that applied namely P0: Control, P1: onion extract, ...

Our environment constantly undergoes changes either natural or manmade affecting growth and development of all the organisms including plants. Plants are sessile in nature and therefore to counter environmental changes such as light, temperature, nutrient and water availability, pathogen, and many others; plants have evolved intricate signaling mechanisms, composed of multiple components includ...

Phosphorus, acquired in the form of phosphate (Pi), is one of the primary macronutrients for plants but is least available in the soil. Pi deficiency is a major factor limiting plant growth, development and reproduction. Plants have developed a complex signaling network to respond to Pi deficiency. The recent discovery of strigolactones, a new class of plant hormones, has led to an emerging sig...

Plant hormones are major growth regulating (auxins, the gibberellins (GAs), cytokinins) which easily available in plant and some also worked as a inhibitor such ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA). These showed an effective result growth, flowering, fruiting, aging, senescence, color enhancement of fruits, prevention or promotion stem elongation, leafing, leaf fall, shoot, root. misused for increase ...

The use of renewable resources and inputs is one of the fundamental principles of sustainable agriculture that enables maximum crop productivity and minimal environmental risk. Nutrient management may be achieved by the involvement of organic sources, bio-fertilizers, and micro-nutrients. Indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers to achieve high yield and to compensate for lack of nutrients an...

Plants are sessile organisms and therefore they must adapt their growth and architecture to a changing environment. Understanding how hormones and genes interact to coordinate plant growth in a changing environment is a major challenge in developmental biology. Although a localized auxin concentration maximum in the root tip is important for root development, auxin concentration cannot change i...
