Phytohormone Signaling </h2> <p>Plants use at least nine major classes of hormone. Each is synthesized through specific enzymatic pathways, perceived by identified receptor proteins, and transduced through defined signaling cascades.</p> <h3 id="11-auxin-indole-3-acetic-acid-iaa"><a href="#11-auxin-indole-3-acetic-acid-iaa" class="heading-anchor" aria-label="Link to this section">¶</a>1.1 Auxin (Indole-3-Acetic Acid, IAA) </h3> <p><strong>Function.</strong> Cell elongation, apical dominance, tropisms (photo- and gravitropism), vascular differentiation, lateral root initiation, embryo patterning.</p>
