General Information

• 1H-Indole-3-acetic acid is a plant growth hormone that belongs to the auxin class. It is also considered to be an inducer of plant cell elongation and division that can cause uncontrolled growth

Applications

• This compound is a monocarboxylic acid; an acetic acid in which one of the methyl hydrogens has been replaced by a 1H-indol-3-yl group.
• Beyond its role as a plant hormone, this compound regulates tissue differentiation, apical dominance, and responses to light, gravity, and pathogens
• It can be used as a signaling molecule necessary for development of plant organs and coordination of growth
