Open AccessAuto- and Cross-repression of Three Arabidopsis WRKY Transcription Factors WRKY18, WRKY40, and WRKY60 Negatively Involved in ABA Signaling
Some members of the WRKY transcription factor family are known to be involved in ABA signaling. However, it remains unclear how the WRKY transcription factors cooperate to regulate ABA signaling. In the presen...

Open AccessRoles of the different components of magnesium chelatase in abscisic acid signal transduction
The H subunit of Mg-chelatase (CHLH) was shown to regulate abscisic acid (ABA) signaling and the I subunit (CHLI) was also reported to modulate ABA signaling in guard cells. However, it remains essentially unk...

Approaches to the Identification of ABAR as an Abscisic Acid Receptor
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a vital phytohormone that regulates seed maturation and germination, seedling growth, and adaptation to environmental stresses. ABA functions through a complex network of signaling pathw...

Expression of a grape calcium-dependent protein kinase ACPK1 in Arabidopsis thaliana promotes plant growth and confers abscisic acid-hypersensitivity in germination, postgermination growth, and stomatal movement
Calcium is an important second messenger involved in abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction. Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are the best characterized calcium sensor in plants and are believed to b...

The Mg-chelatase H subunit is an abscisic acid receptor
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a vital phytohormone that regulates mainly stomatal aperture and seed development, but ABA receptors involved in these processes have yet to be determined. We previously identified from ...

Effect of leaf water status and xylem pH on metabolism of xylem-transported abscisic acid
Metabolism and distribution of xylem-fed ABA were investigated in leaves of maize (Zea mays) and Commelina communis when water stress and xylem pH manipulation were applied. 3H-ABA was fed to excised leaves via t...
