Answer:
Hey Buddy here's ur answer
Any substance that inhibits auxin by competing for the same receptors.
An anti-auxin such as PCIB (p-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid) is a substance that competes with auxin (growth regulating hormone) for binding sites. It inhibits the function of auxin but does not cause any growth response.
TIBA (tri-iodobenzoic acid) is an inhibitor that blocks permease and the transport of auxin.
