Abstract

Through the study of environmental control of plant growth, it has become known that external factors control the internal hormonal factors. The time and amount of hormone produced control the plant growth. It therefore has become of interest, since the discovery of growth regulators, to think about artificial application of hormones and antihormones. The selection, timing and amount of hormone applied are very important. The desired result is an alteration of the life cycle of the plant in such a manner that an increase in yield is achieved.
