The gibberellin involved in flowering is
Correct Answer :
GA9
Solution :
The correct option is GA9.
Gibberellins (GAs) are a large family of tetracyclic diterpenoid plant hormones that regulate various developmental processes, including seed germination, stem elongation, leaf expansion, pollen maturation, and flowering.
While gibberellins like and are well-known for promoting stem elongation and vegetative growth, research has shown that specific gibberellins play distinct roles in reproductive development. Specifically, in many plants (including certain long-day plants and woody species), non-13-hydroxylated gibberellins like (or its immediate metabolites) are highly active and specifically involved in the induction of flowering and floral development.
