Description
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is a naturally occurring Plant Hormone that regulates various growth and developmental processes in plants. Indole Acetic Acid is the most potent and abundant auxin in plants, and it is widely used in agriculture as a Plant Growth Regulator and as a tool for plant research. IAA is produced in the apical meristem of plants, which is the growing tip of the plant. It is then transported to other parts of the plant, where it regulates various growth and developmental processes. IAA is also good Rooting Hormone.IAA is involved in cell division and elongation, root and shoot growth, and the formation of flowers and fruits.

What will plants benefit from Indole Acetic Acid?
1. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) promotes cell division and elongation, which leads to increased plant growth.
2. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) helps plants to enhance environmental stress such as drought, salinity and extreme temperatures. It regulates the opening and closing of stomata, which helps to conserve water and maintain optimal plant function.
3. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is involved in the formation of lateral roots, which helps plants to absorb nutrients and water more efficiently, thus to increase crop yields.
4. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is also involved in the process of phototropism, which is the ability of plants to grow towards a light source. This helps plants to maximize their exposure to sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis and growth.
5. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) plays a critical role in the development of fruits and flowers. It promotes the formation of fruit and seed, and helps to regulate the timing of flowering. This is important for crop production and the development of new plant varieties.
