Abstract excerpt
The balance between the CO2 entry for photosynthesis and transpiration water loss is crucial for plant growth, and ABA signaling can affect this equilibrium. To test how ABA balances plant growth and environmental adaptation, we performed molecular genetics studies in the biotech crop Nicotiana benthamiana under well-watered or drought conditions. Studies on ABA signaling in crops are complicated by the...
