Q. No.Removal of apical dominance by decapitation is utilised for:
| 1. | Suppressing the activity of intercalary meristem |
| 2. | Early senescence |
| 3. | Hedge making |
| 4. | Preparing weed-free lawns |
Removal of shoot tips is a very useful technique to boost the production of tea leaves. This is because:
| 1. | Gibberellins prevent bolting and are inactivated. |
| 2. | Auxins prevent leaf drop at early stages. |
| 3. | Effect of auxins is removed and the growth of lateral buds is enhanced. |
| 4. | Gibberellins delay the senescence of leaves. |
