Philip Wareing

History of Abscisic Acid

Abscisin II is presently called abscisic acid (ABA)(Addicot, 1963). Two other groups at about the same time discovered the same compound. One group headed by Philip Wareing was studying bud dormancy in woody plants.

It is involved in the closure of stomata, bud and seed dormancy and is known to inhibit other hormonal actions. Discovery: 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') .
