Read the given statements and identify the PGRs X, Y and Z . X induces accumulation of salts inside the cells. Y promotes rapid elongation of leaf bases and internodes in deep water rice plants. (iii) Application of Z to leaves shall reduce transpiration.

Step-by-step solution

Cytokinins induce accumulation of salts inside the cells. Ethylene promotes rapid elongation of leaf bases and internodes in deep water rice plants. As a result, leaves remain above water. Application of minute quantity of abscisic acid to leaves shall reduce transpiration to a great extent through partial closure of stomata. It conserves water and reduces the requirement of irrigation.
