What is the Role of Abscissic Acid in Plant Growth and Stress Response?
- Thread starter Abscissiesque
- Start date
In summary, abscissic acid is a hormone found in plants that plays a crucial role in regulating plant growth and stress response. It helps to control seed dormancy, stomatal closure, and water balance during periods of drought. It also helps plants to adapt to environmental stressors such as high salinity, extreme temperatures, and pathogen attacks. Through its interaction with other hormones and signaling pathways, abscissic acid helps plants to maintain their survival and growth in challenging conditions. Overall, abscissic acid is a vital component in the complex network of plant growth and stress response.
