(iv) Abscisic acid: It is a growth-inhibitor hormone that reverses the growth-promoting effects of auxin and gibberellins. It causes dormancy of seeds, wilting of leaves, closing of stomata and loss of proteins and chlorophyll.

(v) Ethylene: It promotes transverse growth, also promotes senescence and abscission of leaves. It acts as an essential hormone for the ripening of fruits.
