Usage: F.T. Addicott and his associates discovered abscisic acid in the early 1960s in the process of studying abscission in cotton (commercially important for mechanization of cotton picking'). It was also being studied by other plant physiologists at the same time for it's property of controlling abscission of flowers and in the initiation of dormancy of wood production.
Application: ABA is an effective inhibitor in seed germination, can be used in seed storage; ABA can promote the accumulation of protein and sugar in fruits; ABA can promote fruit set, improve crops and fruits yield; ABA can enhance plant drought resistance and salt tolerance; ABA is a natural substance existing in plants, it's safe to human and enviroment. During the preparing process, you can firstly use very little ethanol to dissolve it, and then dilute it to required concentration for applying.
