“…Third, inactivation of the H + -ATP-ase participates in the generation of electrical signals (especially variation potentials, VPs) [ 37 , 39 , 59 , 60 ] and, probably, in the formation of various fast physiological responses, induced by these signals [ 38 , 40 ]. In particular, it is known that electrical signals interact with hormonal signaling [ 61 , 62 ] (including the ABA signal [ 8 , 9 , 63 ]), strongly influence photosynthetic processes [ 42 , 50 , 53 , 59 , 60 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 ], change transpiration [ 41 , 64 ], increase the plant tolerance to stressors [ 55 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 ], and induce many other responses (e.g., stimulation of the expression of defense genes [ 66 , 73 ], activation of respiration [ 74 ], and suppression of phloem mass flow [ 75 , 76 ]). Many of these responses are similar to responses induced by ABA treatment; as a result, it can be expected that the exogenous ABA can modify electrical signals and physiological responses caused by these signals.…”
