Adding GA3 hormone helped soybean stems grow longer in the dark but didn't help them grow under blue light, showing blue light's effect couldn't be undone by this hormone.

Scientific Claim

Exogenous 100 mg/L GA3 application increased hypocotyl length to 15.25 cm in Henong 60 under darkness but only to 6.00 cm under blue light, indicating it could not reverse blue light-induced growth inhibition.

Original Statement

D + GA3: 15.25 ± 0.66 a; BL + GA3: 6.00 ± 0.29 b (Figure 3a, Table 1 for HN60 day 7)
