The newly discovered PGR brassinosteroids have effects qualitatively similar to:
1. Auxins
2. Gibberellins
3. Cytokinins
4. Ethylene
The plant hormones that are produced by wounded plants and play a key role in controlling plant defences against herbivores as well as responsible for enchanting fragrance of jasmine are:
1. Brassinosteroids
2. Strigolactones
3. Jasmonates
4. Auxins
The most important colors in regulating photomorhogenesis in plants are:
1. Violet and Yellow
2. White and Black
3. Green and Orange
4. Red and Blue
Blue light photoreceptors in plant do not regulate:
1. Phototropism
2. Light induced opening of stomata
3. Light induces slowing of hypocotyls elongation
4. Seed germination
The biologically active form of the phytochrome is:
1.
2.
3. Both
4. None
When lettuce seeds illuminated by red light are then exposed to far red light:
1. is converted to and germination is inhibited
2. is converted to and germination is initiated
3. is converted to and germination is inhibited
4. is converted to and germination is initiated
Light passing through the green leaves of canopy trees above a seed:
1. stimulates its germination
2. inhibits its germination
3. does not affect its germination
4. causes abnormal germination in the seed
Etiolated seedlings become normal when exposed to:
1. Blue light
2. Green light
3. Red light
4. Far red light
Flowering will take place in a short day plant only when:
1. days are shorter than nights.
2. days are shorter than a certain critical value.
3. nights are shorter than a certain critical value.
4. nights are longer than a certain critical value.
A short day plant is exposed to a flash of red light followed by a flash of far-red light given during the middle of the night. The expected effect is that this will:
1. cause increased flower production.
2. have no effect upon flowering.
3. inhibit flowering.
4. stimulate flowering.
