Plant Growth Regulation

Part of the book series: Proceedings in Life Sciences ((LIFE SCIENCES))

Abstract

The concept of hormonal flowering factors was first proposed by us forty years ago. This was the florigen hypothesis in which a complex of flowering hormones of an unknown nature was postulated (7, 8, 9). In development of the hypothesis, it was suggested twenty years later that florigen is bicomponent in nature, consisting of two complementary flowering hormone groups, the gibberellins, which are involved in the formation and growth of flower stems; and the anthesins, which initiate flower formation (12).
