Molecular characterization of a mutation affecting abscisic acid biosynthesis and consequently stomatal responses to humidity in an agriculturally important species
Mutants deficient in the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) have been instrumental in determining not only the biosynthetic pathway for this hormone, but also its physiological role in land plants. The wilty mutant of Pisum sativum is one of the classical, well-studied ABA-deficient mutants; however, this mutant remains uncharacterized at a molecular level. Using a candidate gene approach, we sho...
متن کاملStomatal responses to water stress and to abscisic Acid in phosphorus-deficient cotton plants.
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plants were grown in sand culture on nutrient solution containing adequate or growth-limiting levels of P. When water was withheld from the pots, stomata of the most recently expanded leaf closed at leaf water potentials of approximately -16 and -12 bars in the normal and P-deficient plants, respectively. Pressure-volume curves showed that the stomata of P-deficie...
متن کاملEffects of cycloheximide on abscisic Acid biosynthesis and stomatal aperture in bean leaves.
Cycloheximide was shown to block abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis in nonstressed as well as in stressed Phaseolus vulgaris leaves. Leaf wilting caused by cycloheximide resulted from increased stomatal opening as judged by a decreased stomatal diffusion resistance. The inhibition of ABA biosynthesis by cycloheximide was at least partially responsible for the increase in stomatal opening as sugge...
متن کاملAnalysis of cytokinin mutants and regulation of cytokinin metabolic genes reveals important regulatory roles of cytokinins in drought, salt and abscisic acid responses, and abscisic acid biosynthesis.
Cytokinins (CKs) regulate plant growth and development via a complex network of CK signaling. Here, we perform functional analyses with CK-deficient plants to provide direct evidence that CKs negatively regulate salt and drought stress signaling. All CK-deficient plants with reduced levels of various CKs exhibited a strong stress-tolerant phenotype that was associated with increased cell membra...
متن کاملAbscisic alcohol is an intermediate in abscisic Acid biosynthesis in a shunt pathway from abscisic aldehyde.
It has previously been shown that the abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient flacca and sitiens mutants of tomato are impaired in ABA-aldehyde oxidation and accumulate trans-ABA-alcohol as a result of the biosynthetic block (IB Taylor, RST Linforth, RJ Al-Naieb, WR Bowman, BA Marples [1988] Plant Cell Environ 11: 739-745). Here we report that the flacca and sitiens mutants accumulate trans-ABA and trans...
