A

Gibberellic acid - Increase yield of sugarcane

B

Cytokinin - Promotes apical dominance

C

Ethylene - Sprouting of potato tuber

D

Abscisic acid - Inhibits seed germination

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Gibberellic acid increases the yield of sugarcane crop. Cytokinins inhibit apical dominance and act antagonistically to auxins which promote apical dominance. Rhizomes, corms, tubers, seeds (e.g. peanut) and other storage organs can be made to sprout early by exposing them to ethylene. Abscisic acid is a plant growth inhibitor, which inhibits seed germination.
