Abscisic acid (ABA) raised the cytosolic pH and nitric oxide (NO) levels in guard cells while inducing stomatal closure epidermis of Pisum sativum. Butyrate (a weak acid) reduced pH/NO production prevented by ABA. Methylamine base) enhanced alkalinization aggravated The rise cell because ABA became noticeable after 6 min peaked at 12 min, NO started 9 18 min. These results suggested that was downstream pH. ABA-induced increase 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl imidazoline-1-oxyl 3-oxide (cPTIO, a...
Patterning of the root xylem into protoxylem (PX) and metaxylem is regulated by auxin-cytokinin signaling microRNA miR165a/166b-mediated suppression genes encoding Class III HOMEODOMAIN LEU-ZIPPER (HD-ZIPIII) proteins. We found that, in Arabidopsis, osmotic stress via core abscisic acid (ABA) meristematic endodermal cells induces differentiation PX radial longitudinal axes association with increased VND7 expression. Similarly, tomato, ABA enhanced longitudinally radially, indicating an...
Improving water use efficiency in crops is a significant challenge as it involves balancing transpiration and CO
Pyrabactin, a synthetic agonist of abscisic acid (ABA), inhibits seed germination and hypocotyl growth stimulates gene expression in very similar way to ABA, implying the possible modulation stomatal function by pyrabactin as well. The effect on closure secondary messengers was therefore studied guard cells Pisum sativum abaxial epidermis. Pyrabactin caused marked pattern ABA. In addition, elevated levels reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), cytoplasmic pH cells, indicated...
