Abstract excerpt

In maize vivipary, the precocious germination of the seed while still attached to the ear, is the diagnostic phenotype of mutants, which are impaired in the biosynthesis or response to abscisic acid (ABA). Of the 15 genes so far described, 12 control specific steps in ABA biosynthesis, two mediate hormone response and one still has an undefined role. We have analyzed a collection of 25 independent vp isolates...
