Solution

The correct option is B Gibberellin
Vernalisation is the process of inducing flowering in plants by exposing them to low temperature. The requirement of low temperature by some plants can be replaced by the use of gibberellins. Gibberellins help to hasten the maturity period of the plants thereby inducing flowering and early seed formation even in the absence of low temperature.
