Morphogenesis is the series of changes by which an individual plant or animal passes from a lower to a higher state of being or from embryonic condition to maturity.

This phase of growth is characterized by a rapid and often linear increase in dry matter production.

It is one of the three general factors affecting plant growth and development that control the general species characteristics of the individual and set limits on size and rate of growth.

Plant growth regulators (PGR) include synthetic compound, which are organic only.

These are organic compounds that are produced by plants and have definite physiological effect. Examples are auxins, ethylene and gibberrellins.

He found that the new shoots of grasses bend toward the light because the cells on the dark side grow faster than that on the lighter side.

The most common form of naturally occurring cytokinin in plants today is called ___ which was isolated from corn.

Cytokinin can hasten senescence of cut flowers and vegetables.

It is the ripening hormone H2C=CH2.

It is a form of ethylene which in its liquid state at a proper pH does not yield ethylene; however when the pH is elevated it breaks down to form ethylene.

Abscisic Acid promotes seed dormancy. Seeds germinate when ABA is degraded by some environmental action.

It involves fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote, which develops into an embryo to form seed.

Mode of pollination where there is a transfer of pollen to the stigma in a flower on a different plant.

It refers to the failure of a flower to fertilize the same flower or other flowers on the same plant.

Floral mechanism promoting self-pollination where flowers do not open at all.
