Scientists have discovered how plants adapt their root systems in drought conditions to grow steeper into the soil to access ...

Rooting powder contains plant hormones to promote growth. Plant cuttings can be dipped in hormone rooting powder before planting. Synthetic plant hormones are used to control plant growth.

Researchers have learned how drought causes plants to modify their root systems so they grow deeper into the ground to reach ...

The selective weedkiller contains a growth hormone that causes the weeds to grow too quickly and die. Because most weeds have broader leaves than grass or wheat, the weedkiller is absorbed in ...

Human growth hormone (HGH) is a hormone that’s essential to our development. Most people produce enough HGH throughout their lifetime. But for those with a deficiency in growth hormone (or a few ...

Growth hormone (GH) is secreted by anterior pituitary somatotroph cells in a pulsatile manner throughout life. Growth hormone secretion is under control by several hypothalamic peptides (stimulated by ...

Growth hormone treatment is a safe and effective therapy that’s often used to treat children and adults with a deficiency in human growth hormone (also known as HGH or somatropin). Naturally ...

The study highlights how ABA and auxin, another key hormone, work together to shape root growth angle, providing a potential strategy to develop drought-resistant crops with improved root system ...

RHs are elongated, tip-growing structures from the epidermis of roots, playing an important role in increasing ... This study explores cross-talk between various hormones like auxin–SL and auxin–CK ...

First, we will examine the concerted action of multiple hormones, each acting in different cell types, to coordinate growth of cells within the primary root. Second, we will use the example of the ...
