Which plant growth regulator is used to initiate flowering and synchronising fruit-set in pineapples?
| 1. | Gibberellins | 2. | Cytokinins |
| 3. | ABA | 4. | Ethylene |
Seed dormancy can be due to the presence of chemical inhibitors which include all the following except:
1. abscisic acids
2. phenolic acids
3. para-ascorbic acid
4. gibberellic acid
Which PGR stimulates the closure of stomata and increases the tolerance of plants to various kinds of stresses?
| 1. | Abscisic acid | 2. | Ethylene |
| 3. | Auxins | 4. | Cytokinins |
| Assertion (A): | Plant growth is intimately linked to the water status of the plant. |
| Reason (R): | The plant cells grow in size by cell enlargement, which in turn requires water. |
| 1. | (A) is True but (R) is False |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A) |
| 3. | Both (A) and (R) are True and but (R) does not correctly explain (A) |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True |
