Drought, abscisic acid and transpiration rate effects on the regulation of PIP aquaporin gene expression and abundance in Phaseolus vulgaris plants.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Drought causes a decline of root hydraulic conductance, which aside from embolisms, is governed ultimately by aquaporins. Multiple factors probably regulate aquaporin expression,… Expand

Role of abscisic acid in perianth senescence of daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus"Dutch Master").
Daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus L. 'Dutch Master') flowers detached at the base of their ovaries and held with their cut ends in 10-100 microM abscisic acid (ABA) senesced prematurely. Symptoms… Expand

Thidiazuron —a potent inhibitor of leaf senescence in Alstroemeria
Abstract The time to flower senescence and leaf yellowing in 20 cut flower cultivars of Alstroemeria was studied. In deionized water (DI), the time to abscission of the first petal ranged from 9 to… Expand
