CYTOKININS, ABSCISIC ACID AND THE CONTROL OF PLANT WATER BALANCE |

| Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the influence of developing soil water deficit on stomatal responses in the shoot. Recent research interests have been directed toward the possibility that the root can communicate to the shoot some indication of a perturbation in the edaphic environment. Emphasis is placed here on the involvement of cytokinins in modulating stomatal behaviour. The role of these compounds in root to shoot communication is discussed. | |
