Water-soluble form of IBA, an auxin-family plant growth hormone. Promotes root organogenesis, induces callus formation, forms adventitious roots, aids in regulation of gravitropism and phototropism.
Application Notes
IBA is thought to be a precursor of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) the most abundant and the basic auxin natively occurring and functioning in plants. IAA generates the majority of auxin effects in intact plants, and is the most potent native auxin.
