Abstract excerpt
ABA and flavonol accumulation protect plants against UV-B radiation damage. However, the molecular mechanism by which UV-B enhances ABA signaling to induce flavonol biosynthesis remains largely unknown. Here, we found that ABA receptor ntpyl6 (PYRABACTIN RESISTANCE 1-LIKE6) mutants are more sensitive to UV-B than the wild type and that UV-B significantly induces ABA accumulation and NtPYL6 expression in tobacco...
