Solution

The correct option is D
Abscisic acid

Abscisic acid is a hormone which inhibits growth. It is responsible for wilting of leaves, dormancy of seeds and buds and inhibition of seed germination and development. Hence it is not associated with the growth of plants. Auxin, gibberellins and cytokinins are plant hormones associated with the growth of plants.
