Gibberellin might be the correct answer. The seed less grapes bunches in the initial stages of growth will be dipped in Gibberellin for better growth and increased size of individual grape.

Cytokinin - cell division, prevent senescence.
Auxin - Apical dominance.
Gibberellin - growth, breaks the dormancy of buds.
Abscisic acid - dormancy, stomata closing.
Ethylene - fruit ripening, senescence.

They act locally to induce Vesodilation and contraction of muscles. Kinin functions as mediator for inflammatory responses by triggering the immune system. In botany, the plant hormones called cytokinins were first called kinins.

Auxin helps in cell enlargement while cytokinin helps in cell division. Therefore the answer is correct.

Kinins is also a plant hormone that induces cell division.

Auxin's partner in crime is a class of hormones called Cytokinins. Cytokinins promote cell division (cytokinesis) and are produced in roots, embryos and fruits, or wherever there is actively growing tissue. However, cytokinins need auxin to induce cell division.
