Role of Abscisic Acid in Seed Dormancy by Bharat Singh is a document available to read on EtoBox.
ABA is a plant hormone that promotes seed maturation and helps plants withstand environmental stress. It was first identified as a compound that causes seed and bud dormancy. Further experiments led to the discovery that ABA, also known as dormin and abscissin II, promotes the shedding of cotton fruits. ABA occurs widely in vascular plants and plays important roles in seed development and helping plants adapt to stress conditions.
