Solution

The correct option is B Gibberellin
Gibberellin overcomes vernalization requirement (low temperature) for flowering. Gibberellins affect several reproductive processes in plants. They stimulate flowering, particularly in long-day plants. In addition, gibberellins substitute for the low temperature that biennials require before they begin flowering (vernalisation).
