Plant
growth regulators(PGRs), regulate the growth of the plants. PGRs are
just like the harmones produced in human body. They are also called as
plant harmones or phytoharmones. These harmones are very essential for
the plants for cell division, roots development,bud developement, stem
elongation, branching etc.. But while culturing the plants using a plant
tissue invitro(laboratory), the cells of the tissues are incapapable of
producing these necessary harmones. So they have to be provided to the
cells from the external source. Such artificially prepared plant growth
regulators are called synthetic PGR. PGRs inclides auxin, cytokinin,
giberellins, abscicic acid etc..

Regulate abscission and dormancy. Inhibit plant growth, metabolism and seed germination. Stimulates closure of stomata in the epidermis. It increases the tolerance of plants to different kinds of stress and is, therefore, called 'stress hormone'
