2-cis,4-trans-Abscisic acid, a plant hormone, plays a role in regulating the plant′s response to water stress. Its function involves inhibiting the activity of nitrate reductase and alcohol dehydrogenase enzymes. Additionally, 2-cis,4-trans-Abscisic acid exhibits synergistic effects with p-hydroxybenzoic acid, a natural compound involved in lignin synthesis in plants. In terms of insect control, 2-cis,4-trans-Abscisic acid demonstrates insecticidal activity by inducing metabolic changes leading to insect mortality. However, it does not affect bacteria or fungi.
