Abstract:Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone that plays several roles in plant development. The de novo synthesis and the reversible inactivation of ABA have been largely described in the literature; however, the degradation of ABA, promoted by the enzymes Abscisic Acid 8'-Hydroxylase, encoded by the CYP707A gene family, is still poorly elucidated. Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) has been used as a model to study the ABA-dependent maturation process of non-climacteric fruits, and the ABA-dependent response to abiot… Show more
