We’ll explore five major types of plant hormones, but beyond that, botanical researchers are still routinely discovering new ones. Let’s start with ethylene— the only plant hormone that’s ...

“For about 40 years, we have known that the gaseous plant hormone ethylene, which is produced when plants are under stress, such as being flooded, inhibits the symbiosis between plants and fungi,” ...
