GIBBRELIC ACID

Gibberellic acid (GA) is a plant growth regulator that’s used in tissue culture to promote plant growth and development. It’s commonly used to stimulate shoot growth, promote cell elongation, and induce flowering.

How it’s used

• Shoot elongation: GA stimulates shoot elongation, which is important for achieving healthy plantlets
• Cell elongation: GA promotes cell elongation, which is important for plant growth
• Flowering: GA can induce or enhance flowering in tissue culture
• Seed germination: GA can accelerate seed germination by breaking dormancy
• Callus growth: GA stimulates callus growth and differentiation into shoots or roots
• Plantlet formation: GA induces plantlet formation from adventive embryos formed in culture
