ABA Powder  is a sesquiterpenoid plant hormone produced in plants that inhibits plant growth and development, abbreviated as ABA. It is ubiquitous in the plant kingdom, especially in mature and senescent tissues, but also in young organs and tissues.

Main Functions

1. Inhibit and promote growth

External application of ABA Powder with a concentration greater than or equal to 10-7mol will inhibit the growth of stems, hypocotyls, roots, coleoptiles or leaves. However, when it is less than or equal to 10-7mol, it can promote the elongation of the rooting and hypocotyls of isolated cucumber cotyledons, accelerate the reproduction of duckweed, and stimulate the development of parthenocarpy seeds.

2. Increase the yield

It can promote the storage of seeds and fruits, especially the accumulation of storage proteins and sugars. Applying abscisic acid in the early stage of seed and fruit development can achieve the purpose of increasing the yield of food crops and fruit trees.

3. Maintain the dormancy of buds and seeds

The dormancy of the latent buds of potato tubers and deciduous trees, as well as seed embryos of Korean pine and wheat, is related to the balance of GA/ABA in the body.

4. Anti-transpiration

ABA can close the stomata quickly, is non-toxic to plants, and is an excellent anti-transpiration agent;

5. Plant balance factor

It has the ability to promote the balanced absorption of water and fertilizer, and coordinate metabolism in the body. It can effectively regulate the root cap, vegetative growth and reproductive growth of plants, and plays an important role in improving the quality and yield of crops.

Application

ABA Powder is mainly used in agricultural industry.
