- They are organic substances produced in one part of the plant body and act in another part.
- They are mainly transported through phloem.

Auxins
- Auxins were the first plant hormones to be discovered.
- Auxins are produced by growing tips of stem and root.
- Indole acetic acid is the most abundant and powerful naturally occurring auxin.
3
Gibberellins
- More than 100 types of gibberellic acids are known.
- Gibberellins are produced in young leaves, plastids of immature seeds, or even roots.
