ABA-induced NO generation and stomatal closure in Arabidopsis are dependent on H2 O2 synthesis. (2006, methodology): “In wild-type Arabidopsis, nitrite induces guard cell NO synthesis and stomatal closure whilst ABA fails to produce NO or induce stomatal closure in epidermal peels of the nia1, nia2 NR-deficient mutant (Desikan et al., 2002).”
A review of soil NO transformation: associated processes and possible physiological significance on organisms (2015, background): “In addition, it fulfills functions in stomatal 1418 regulation (Garcı́a-Mata and Lamattina, 2001; Desikan et al., 2002; Neill et 1419 al., 2002), root nitrogen uptake and metabolism (Simon et al., 2009; 2013) 1420 and adaptive responses to abiotic stress (Neill et al., 2003; 2008; Besson-1421 Bard…”
Nitric oxide as a bioactive signalling molecule in plant stress responses (2007, background): “in cucumber [43], sunflower, spinach, maize [44], Arabidopsis [45], wheat, orchid, aloe [46], tobacco [47,48], as well as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [49].”
Evidence for the involvement of nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species in osmotic stress tolerance of wheat seedlings: Inverse correlation between leaf abscisic acid accumulation and leaf water loss (2004, background): “Many reports suggest that both nitrate reductase (Yamasaki et al. 1999; Yamasaki and Sakihama 2000; Desikan et al. 2002) and NOS (Dean and Harper 1986; Delledonne et al.”
Nitric oxide, stomatal closure, and abiotic stress. (2007, background): “Moreover, in the Atnos1 and nia1nia2 mutants, both ABA-induced stomatal closure and ABA-induced NO generation are impaired (Desikan et al., 2002).”
Abscisic Acid and Antioxidant Defense in Plant Cells (2004, positive): “How does ABA induce the generation of ROS? What contributions to the cellular H2O2 pool are made by the various sources of ROS induced by ABA? What concentrations of ROS are toxic to plant cells? Is the diffusion of H2O2 through water channels regulated? What are the sensors of ABA and ROS in plants”
