Abstract:The multifaceted role of Abscisic acid (ABA) as a phytohormone of great repute cannot be overstated. ABA right after its synthesis within plastids embark on a quest to find specific receptors. On binding these receptors a complex signaling cascade is triggered that ultimately modulates gene expression and other cellular processes, responsible for normal growth and development processes of plants. Under abiotic and biotic stresses ABA levels change tremendously, triggering a cascade of physiological responses t… Show more
