One of the commonly used plant growth hormone in pineapple to promote flowering is

Step-by-step solution

Indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) is a phytohormone which is generally produced by the growing apices of the stems and roots, from where they migrate to the regions of their action. It is observed that the growing apical bud inhibits the growth of the lateral (axillary) bud. Since apical meristem is the site of auxin synthesis, it is the physiological effect of the auxin which results in the phenomenon of apical dominance. Auxins promote flowering e.g. in pineapples. They help to prevent fruit and leaf drop at early sta
