Auxins were isolated from human urine for the first time.

  • Botanist Fritz W. Went, isolated auxin for the first time from human urine.
  • Auxin(Indole-3-acetic acid) was later isolated from fungi and eventually, it was isolated from higher plants.
  • The function of auxin is to regulate growth in plant hormones by stimulating cell elongation in the stems of the plants.
  • IAA influences this growth of stem towards the light and away from gravity.
