उत्तर

Tea bushes are pruned regularly to remove the apical buds (growing tips). This action stops the downward flow of auxins, which allows the lateral (side) buds to grow actively, resulting in a denser, bushier plant with a higher yield of leaves.

The phenomenon overcome by frequent pruning is Apical Dominance.

The plant hormone responsible for this phenomenon is Auxin.
