Scientific Background Abscisic acid is a naturally occurring plant hormone and gene regulator. It functions to regulate plant growth, more specifically having an effect on several physiological mechanisms including seed dormancy, leaf abscission, stomatal movement, and plant stress responses. This is the active isoform and is ultrapure.
