What are brassinosteroids? Brassinosteroids are a class of polyhydroxysteroids that function as essential plant hormones. They are crucial in regulating various physiological processes, including cell elongation, division, and differentiation. These hormones influence plant growth, development, and response to environmental stresses, contributing to overall plant health and productivity. In this post […]
Gibberellins are plant hormones that act like growth spurts. They promote stem elongation, seed germination by breaking dormancy, and flowering in some plants.
