4. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME MADE OF: • Aromatic carbon ring • Carboxyl group (--COOH) FUNCTION: • Auxinis not evenly distributed in the plant, so it determines the shape of the plant. • Auxincauses growth by loosening the cellulose in cell walls. • Auxin helps repair wounds by regenerating lost tissues. • Auxin stimulates root growth and development. • Auxin encourages fruit growth and development. MISCELLANEOUS: The discovery of auxins was first published in 1937 in the book Phytohormones by Frits Went and Kenneth V. Thimann.
