The process by which plastids and auxins participate in gravitropism.

Introduction:

The plants respond to countless environmental cues besides light, for example, more CO2 in the atmosphere, low density of stomata on leaves, or temperature. Similarly, gravity is another important environmental cue. When the directional growth of plants occurs in response to gravity, it is known as gravitropism.
