Abstract excerpt
We have examined the cold-induced enhancement of freezing tolerance and expression of cold-regulated (cor) genes in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh (Landsberg 'erecta') and abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient (aba) and ABA-insensitive (abi) mutants derived from it. The results indicate that the abi mutations had no apparent effect on freezing tolerance, while the aba mutations did: cold-acclimated aba mutants were...
