Abstract excerpt
Mammalian peptide hormones propagate extracellular stimuli from sensing tissues to appropriate targets to achieve optimal growth maintenance 1 . In land plants, root-to-shoot signalling is important to prevent water loss by transpiration and to adapt to water-deficient conditions 2, 3 . The phytohormone abscisic acid has a role in the regulation of stomatal movement to prevent water loss 4 . However, no mobile...
