phytohormones
Phytohormones are chemical signal molecules produced within plants that regulate virtually every aspect of plant growth and development, from embryogenesis and organ formation to stress responses and reproduction. Despite occurring in extremely low concentrations, these compounds orchestrate complex physiological processes and enable plants to respond dynamically to their environment, making them central targets in plant biology research aimed at improving crop resilience and yield.
