Key Features and Functions
1. Growth and Elongation: GA stimulates cell division and cell elongation, particularly in stems, leading to increased plant height and overall shoot growth.
2. Seed Germination: It helps break seed dormancy and promotes germination. GA signals the aleurone layer of seeds to produce enzymes (like α-amylase) that mobilize stored nutrients for the emerging embryo.
3. Developmental Transitions: GA influences multiple developmental processes such as leaf expansion, flowering, and fruit development.
Biological Context
Gibberellins (abbreviated as GAs) are a class of plant hormones that regulate various stages of a plant’s life cycle. Gibberellic acid is one member of this class (specifically GA₃), and plants naturally produce multiple gibberellins, many of which have similar roles in growth regulation.
