Abscisic acid is a growth inhibiting phytohormone. It induces senescence in leaves by promoting the degradation of chlorophyll and proteins. Auxin is a growth promoting phytohomone that results in cell division, cell enlargement and apical dominance. Cytokinin is a growth promoting phytohormone that causes cell division, morphogenesis and seedling growth. Gibberellins are growth promoting phytohormone that results in overcoming seed dormancy and bolting.
