The following are some Plant Hormones or Phytohormones:

$ Auxins: They help in the bending of the plant shoot towards sunlight and help the plant in Phototropism. They also help in the elongation of plants cells

$ Gibberellins: They also work alongside Auxins in helping the plant shoot to bend towards light.

$ Ethylene: They help to hasten the process of fruit ripening.

$ Abscisic acid: They help in inhibiting growth in plants (Ex: Falling of leaves in Autumn, etc.).

$ Cytokinines: They help in cell division ( 'Cyto': Cell and 'kinesis': divide)



sinhaaaryan27: While there are many more phytohormones, we considered the above mentioned as to be the most important ones in the plant body.
