Abstract excerpt
Protein farnesylation is a post-translational modification known to regulate abscisic acid (ABA)-mediated drought tolerance in plants. However, it is unclear whether and to what extent protein farnesylation affects plant tolerance to high-temperature conditions. The Arabidopsis heat-intolerant 5 (hit5) mutant was isolated because it was thermosensitive to prolonged heat incubation at 37°C for 4 d but...
