3-Indoleacetic acid (IAA) is a naturally occurring plant hormone with a vital role in plant growth and development. As a primary auxin, 3-Indoleacetic acid belongs to a group of plant hormones that oversee multiple aspects of plant growth and development. Plants synthesize and secrete 3-Indoleacetic acid, which participates in diverse processes such as cell division, cell elongation, and apical dominance. It also influences root and shoot development, senescence, and flowering. Extensively studied and used in laboratory experiments, 3-Indoleacetic acid operates through various mechanisms. These include activating genes responsive to auxin, inhibiting enzymes that degrade auxin, and impeding the movement of auxin out of cells. Moreover, 3-Indoleacetic acid interacts with other plant hormones like cytokinins, gibberellins, and abscisic acid, to regulate overall plant growth and development. It exerts biochemical and physiological effects on plants, stimulating the expression of growth- and development-related genes while inhibiting genes involved in auxin breakdown. Furthermore, 3-Indoleacetic acid governs the production of various plant hormones, including cytokinins, gibberellins, and abscisic acid.
