Q. No.PGR causing the closure of stomata in response to water stress is:
| 1. | ABA | 2. | Gibberellins |
| 3. | Auxin | 4. | Cytokinin |
When compared to their normal sized counterparts, the dwarf mutant varieties of a plant generally produce less:
| 1. | Auxins | 2. | Gibberellins |
| 3. | Ethylene | 4. | ABA |
Plant growth is generally indeterminate because of:
1. Phenotypic plasticity
2. Geometrical growth shown by all organs
3. Presence of meristems
4. Terminally differentiated cells

Which of the following is not a use of plant PGR ethylene?
1. Initiation of flowering and synchronizing fruit set in pineapples.
2. Induction of flowering in mango.
3. Ethephon, most common source of ethylene, hastens fruit ripening in tomatoes.
4. Induction of parthenocarpy in tomatoes.
How does pruning help in making the hedge dense?
| 1. | It induces the differentiation of new shoots from the rootstock |
| 2. | It frees axillary buds from apical dominance |
| 3. | The apical shoots grow faster after pruning |
