Abscission layer formation is accelerated by _____________ .
- A Auxin
- B ABA
- C Gibberellins
- D Ethylene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Ethylene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Abscission layer formation is accelerated by ethylene. It is only gaseous hormone associated with fruit ripening. It breaks dormancy of bud and seed, also helps in formation of lateral roots.
