Charles Darwin used which plant in the discovery of plant growth regulator?
1 Larkspur
2 Buttercup
3 Tobacco
4 Canary grass
Explanation:
The discovery of each of the five major groups of PGRs have been accidental. All this started with the observation of Charles Darwin and his son Francis Darwin when they observed that the coleoptiles of canary grass responded to unilateral illumination by growing towards the light source (phototropism). After a series of experiments, it was concluded that the tip of coleoptile was the site of transmittable influence that caused the bending of the entire coleoptile. Auxin was isolated by F.W. Went from tips of coloptiles of oat seedlings.

Who among the following conducted an experiment depicted by following diagram____
1 F. Skoog and his co-workers
2 E. Kurosawa
3 Cousins
4 Charles Darwin and his son Francis Darwin
Explanation:
The given diagram gives an idea of experiment used to demonstrate that tip of the coleoptile is the source of auxin. In the given diagram arrows are used to show the direction of light. This experiment was carried out by Charles Darwin and his son Francis Darwin.

Who reported that the symptoms reappeared in uninfected plants treated with sterile filtrate of gibberella?
1 Charles Darwin
2 F. Skoog
3 F.W. Went
4 E. Kurosawa
Explanation:
E. Kurosawa (1926) reported the appearance of symptoms of the disease in rice seedlings when they were treated with sterile filtrates of the fungus. The active substances were later identified as gibberellic acid.
