Abstract
The present invention provides agonist compounds that activate ABA receptors, agricultural formulations comprising the agonist compounds, and methods of use for the compounds and formulations. The agricultural formulations are useful for inducing ABA responses in plant vegetative tissues, reducing abiotic stress in plants, and inhibiting germination of plant seeds. The compounds are also useful for inducing expression of ABA-responsive genes in cells that express endogenous or heterologous ABA receptors.
