Application

Indole-3-Butyric Acid is primarily used as a rooting hormone to promote adventitious root development in plant cuttings, including woody ornamentals and difficult-to-root species. It is applied as a powder, liquid dip, or foliar spray in horticulture and nursery operations. Researchers utilize IBA to study auxin-mediated plant developmental processes such as cell elongation, vascular differentiation, and apical dominance. The compound is also employed in plant tissue culture media to induce callus formation and somatic embryogenesis.
