Glossary Abscisic Acid

plant hormone regulating stress responses and seed dormancy

Abscisic Acid (ABA) is a plant hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating various plant processes, including seed dormancy, stress responses, and stomatal closure. It helps plants adapt to environmental stress conditions such as drought by signaling the closure of stomata to reduce water loss.

research Moderate water stress in rice induces rhizosheath formation associated with abscisic acid and auxin responses

38 citations , January 2020 in “Journal of Experimental Botany”

This study found that moderate water stress in rice plants induces rhizosheath formation, influenced by abscisic acid and auxin pathways, suggesting potential for breeding drought-resistant rice varieties.

research Graphene oxide and indole-3-acetic acid cotreatment regulates the root growth of Brassica napus L. via multiple phytohormone pathways

34 citations , March 2020 in “BMC plant biology”

This study found that cotreatment with graphene oxide and indole-3-acetic acid significantly inhibited root development in Brassica napus, with the inhibition increasing as indole-3-acetic acid concentration rose.

research Functional characterization of soybean strigolactone biosynthesis and signaling genes in Arabidopsis MAX mutants and GmMAX3 in soybean nodulation

43 citations , December 2017 in “BMC Plant Biology”

This study found that strigolactone biosynthesis and signaling components in soybean may interact with other hormone pathways, influencing soybean development and nodulation.

research Regulation of Phytohormones on the Growth and Development of Plant Root Hair

24 citations , March 2022 in “Frontiers in plant science”

This review discusses the roles of phytohormones like auxin and ethylene in regulating root hair growth and development in plants, but it reports no new experimental results.

research RNA interference of NtNCED3 reduces drought tolerance and impairs plant growth through feedback regulation of isoprenoids in Nicotiana tabacum

17 citations , July 2018 in “Environmental and Experimental Botany”

The researchers reported that silencing the NtNCED3-2 gene in tobacco reduced ABA content and drought tolerance, inhibited root and leaf development, and decreased photosynthetic ability due to altered isoprenoid metabolism.

community Hair and plants analogy and dht (serious)

2 upvotes 5 months ago

Hair loss may be linked to DHT, which can both suppress and increase inflammation, potentially as a defense mechanism. Treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841 are discussed, but the exact cause of hair loss remains unclear.
