| auxin |
Auxins are a group of plant growth substances (often called phytohormones or plant hormones). Auxins play essential role in coordination of many growth and behavorial processes in the plant life. In fact auxins and theirs, strikingly very ingenious and complex, transport througtout the plant have been demonstrated to be the basic coordinative signal of plant developement. They also often control action of other plant hormones. ...
