Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs), in the environmental context, refer to naturally occurring or synthetically produced compounds that influence the growth and development of plants. These substances can mimic plant hormones or interfere with their natural balance, thereby affecting processes such as germination, flowering, fruiting, and aging. While PGRs are widely used in agriculture and horticulture to improve crop yields and quality, their impact on the environment and non-target plant species is a subject of ongoing research and discussion.
