Gibberellin

Type: Plant Growth Regulator

Mode of Action: Modulating the expression of specific genes involved in growth and development

Common Product Names: ProGibb 

What is it?

Gibberellins are naturally occurring plant hormones found in various parts of the plant, such as seeds, young leaves, and roots. They were first discovered in Japan in the 1920s when scientists observed a fungal disease in rice plants caused by Gibberella fujikuroi, which led to abnormal growth. Today, synthetic gibberellins are widely used in agriculture to enhance plant growth and improve crop yields. They are commonly used in ornamentals to control specific growth factors.

How does it work?

Gibberellins influence a range of physiological processes in plants, including:

  • Seed Germination: They break seed dormancy and stimulate germination.
  • Stem Elongation: They promote cell elongation and division, resulting in taller plants.
  • Flowering: They induce flowering in certain plant species.
  • Fruit Development: They enhance fruit size and quality in some crops.

Benefits

  • Enhanced Growth: Promotes stem elongation and overall plant height.
  • Improved Germination: Breaks seed dormancy and stimulates quicker germination.
  • Increased Crop Yield: Leads to larger and better-quality fruits and vegetables.
  • Uniform Flowering: Induces more synchronized flowering in crops.
