Key Stage 4 Higher
Meaning
Gibberellins are a group of plant hormones that affect the growth and development of plant tissues.
About Gibberellins
- Gibberellins can cause plant cells to elongate.
- Gibberellins can affect the germination of seeds the formation of flowers and the size of fruit grown by a plant.
Using Gibberellins
- Farmers use gibberellins to cause seeds to germinate. This can help them all grow at the same time, making it easier to harvest them all at once.
- Gibberellins are also used to make fruit grow faster.
