Solution

The correct option is B Gibberellin
Gibberellin is a plant hormone that is involved in various developmental processes like stem elongation, germination, dormancy, leaf and fruit senescence, etc. The induction of dormancy in buds starts only after the falling of leaves. Winter buds can be induced to break the dormancy by exogenous application of gibberellin hormone.
Thus, the correct answer is option B 'Gibberllins'
