Despite the bewildering ability of higher plants to change their development with respect to the environment, there appear to be only a few hormones that function to organize growth and development. With the recent identification of three plant hormone receptors, the molecular identities of all the major plant receptors are now known. Some plant hormones such as cytokinins, ethylene, and brassi...

Method: Recently, plant hormones have been considered to reduce fungal severity. Five different plant hormones namely 2, 4-D (2,4Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid); BAP (6Benzylaminopurine); Dicamba (3,6Dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid, 3,6-Dichloro-o-anisic acid); IAA (Indole-2-acetic acid) and SA (Salicylic acid) were selected to examine their antifungal activity against the growth of two species of d...

Plant growth regulator’s plays a very important role in Kinnow production. There are different type of PGR’s that includes GA3, NAA, CPPU and Ethyl which when applied on kinnow performs well give good results such as high quality, yield long shelf life the fruit. regulators (PGRs) known for having significant impact fruit retention. hormones involved physiological functions, developmental aspec...

Abstract Global warming has great impacts on plant growth and development, as well ecological distribution. Plants constantly perceive environmental temperatures adjust their development programs accordingly to cope with the environment under non-lethal warm temperature conditions. Plant hormones are endogenous bioactive chemicals that play central roles in growth, developmental, responses biot...

Brassinosteroids are plant natural products with structural similarities to animal steroid hormones. They are found throughout the plant kingdom, and when applied exogenously at nanomolar to micromolar levels in a number of test systems, they exhibit a wide spectrum of physiological effects, including a marked promotion of cell elongation [1]. Like animal steroid hormones, brassinosteroids regu...

Plant hormones have pivotal roles in the regulation of plant growth, development, and reproduction. Additionally, they emerged as cellular signal molecules with key functions in the regulation of immune responses to microbial pathogens, insect herbivores, and beneficial microbes. Their signaling pathways are interconnected in a complex network, which provides plants with an enormous regulatory ...

The spur-type growth habit in apple trees is characterized by short internodes, increased number of fruiting spurs, and compact growth that promotes flowering and facilitates management practices, such as pruning. The molecular mechanisms responsible for regulating spur-type growth have not been elucidated. In the present study, miRNAs and the expression of their potential target genes were eva...
