Application

Gibberellin A4 has been used as a supplement in Murashige and Skoog (MS) media for enhancing plant growth.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gibberillic acids (GA) are important plant growth hormones that promote plant cell growth and elongation. Gebberillins promote rapid stem and root growth, induce mitotic division and initiate (break dormancy) and increase seed germination rates. The gibberellins are also involved in processes such as gravitropism, tensioning and floral display.
