Functions of (auxin) Indole Butyric Acid IBA

(auxin) Indole butyric acid IBA can induce cell elongation and cell division with all subsequent results for plant growth and development.

(auxin) Indole butyric acid IBA serves as signaling molecules necessary for development of plant organs and coordination of growth.

(auxin) Indole butyric acid IBA plays a key role in both root and shoot development.

(auxin) Indole butyric acid IBA also induces sugar and mineral accumulation at the site of application

(auxin) Indole butyric acid IBA induces the formation and organization of xylem and phloem. When the plant is injured, the auxin can induce the cell differentiation and regeneration of the vascular tissues.

Usage and Crops:

+ Among uses, IBA is used to propagate seedless plants such as tomato and cucumber.

+ Annuals: such as tomato, basal, squash, melon, cucumber, cotton (for oil)

+ Perennial plants: such as strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, lavender, rosemary, thyme, mint, oregano, salvia, sage
