Jasmonic Acid in Plant Abiotic Stress Tolerance and Interaction with Abscisic Acid

The phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA), a cyclopentane fatty acid, mediates plant responses to abiotic stresses. Abiotic stresses rapidly and dynamically affect JA metabolism by upregulating the expression of genes involved in biosynthesis signaling, indicating that has crucial role stress responses. been demonstrated many previous studies showing response regulates various defense systems, such as removal reactive oxygen species accumulation osmoprotectants. Furthermore, increasing evidence shows tolerance is linked response, suggesting can be improved modulating In this review, we briefly describe biosynthetic signaling pathways summarize recent an essential variety stresses, drought, cold, salt, heavy metal stress. Additionally, discuss crosstalk with another key hormone, abscisic
