Plant growth regulators are simple and small chemicals generated by plants naturally to regulate development and growth. Phytohormones or plant growth hormones are classified into plant growth inhibitors and plant growth promoters. While promoters promote cell division and enlargement, inhibitors inhibit growth and facilitate dormancy and abscission in plants.
