Abstract

In the 1930s, Dr. F. W. Went and R. Bonner conducted investigations into the factors regulating cell elongation in plants and their subsequent effect on plant growth. These studies eventually led to the isolation of a plant growth hormone called auxin. Auxin was finally identified chemically as indole-3-acetic acid or IAA.
