Abstract

Summary Abscisic acid (ABA), a plant hormone, is involved in responses to environmental stresses such as drought and high salinity, and is required for stress tolerance. ABA is synthesized de novo in response to dehydration. 9‐ cis ‐epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (NCED) is thought to be a key enzyme in...
