Role of Jasmonates in Plant Adaptation to Stress
Jasmonic acid and methyl jasmonate are naturally growth regulators widely distributed in plants. They are involved in the regulation of a multitude of processes. The functional physiology underlying these phen...

Chapter
Role of Salicylic Acid in Alleviating Heavy Metal Stress
Both plant breeders and crop producers have an interest in finding crops capable of tolerating environmental changes with damage as little as possible. In order to develop such crops, the knowledge of plant de...

Fluridone- and Light- Affected Chloroplast Ultrastructure and ABA Accumulation in Drought-Stressed Barley
Fluridone and nonflurazon are selective inhibitors of carotenoid synthesis in cells. They interfere with desaturation steps of carotenoid biogenesis and thus blocks the accumulation of carotenoids (1,2,3). Car...

Involvement of abscisic acid in photosynthetic process in Hordeum vulgare L. during salinity stress
In Hordeum vulgare L. plants, NaCl stress imposed through the root medium for a period of 8 days decreased the rate of CO2 assimilation, the chlorophyll and protein leaf content, and the activity of ribulose-1,5-...

Effect of abscisic acid on the photosynthetic oxygen evolution in barley chloroplasts
In vivo effect of abscisic acid (ABA) on photosynthetic oxygen evolution was investigated in barley chloroplasts. The most important kinetic parameters of O2-producing reactions were changed. The results show inh...
