Abstract excerpt
Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a major role in plant development and adaptation to severe environmental conditions. ABA evokes cellular events to regulate stomatal apertures and thus contributes to the plant's ability to respond to abiotic stresses. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced in response to ABA and mediate ABA-induced stomatal closure. We have shown that two MAP kinases, MPK9 and MPK12, are highly and...
