 A growth regulator is

An organic compound,Can be natural or synthetic,It modifies or controls one or more specific physiological processes within a plant but the sites of action and production are different.

If the compound is produced within the plant it is called a plant hormone (e.g. auxin, which regulates the growth of longitudinal cells involved in bending a stem of a plant one way or the other).

Substances applied externally also can bring about modifications such as improved rooting of cuttings, increased rate of ripening, easier separation of fruit from the stem, etc. A large number of chemicals tend to increase the yield of certain plants such as corn and sugarcane.

Both internal plant hormones and lab created hormones are called plant growth regulators.

Hormones usually move within plant from a site of production to site of action.

There are five classes of phytohormones:

Auxins,Gibberellins,Cytokinins,Abscisic acid andEthylene.
