Solution

The correct option is D Florigen
Florigen is the hypothesized hormone-like nolecules responsible for controlling and triggering flowering in plants. Florigen is produced in the leaves and acts in the shoot apical meristem of buds and growing tips. It is known to be graft-transmissible and even functions between species. It is actually gibberellin in nature.
