NAA is a synthetic auxin. Some of the most widely used weed killers are synthetic auxins. Synthetic auxin analogs include 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 2, 4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4,5-T).
IBA (Indole butyric acid) and IAA(Indole acetic acid) are naturally occurring plant hormone of the auxin class. Gibberellic acid (GA) is a hormone found in plants and fungi.
