Mikhail Khristoforovich Chailakhyan (Template:Langx, Template:Langx; 1902–1991) was a Soviet Armenian scientist who is widely known for proposing the existence of a universal plant hormone that is involved in flowering.[1] He named this hormone florigen in 1936.[2] His studies included the mechanisms of flowering, tuberization and sex expression in plants. His pioneer work included the agricultural applications of phytohormones and synthetic analogs.[3]
