Abstract

Although the molecular bases underlaying plant development are poorly understood, it is widely accepted that plant growth and differentiation are greatly influenced by several classes of phytohormones. A classical example is the control of organogenesis in tissue-cultured tobacco by auxins and cytokinins (Skoog and Miller, 1957).
