Solution

The correct option is B Gibberellins
The dwarf pea and maize test are performed for the bioassay of gibberellins. Both these varieties are allowed to germinate till the plumule comes out and then they are applied with gibberellins. The effect of gibberellins is measured by measuring the length of the epicotyl.
So, the correct answer is 'GIbberellins'.
