Research Progress on Abscisic Acid Receptor and Signal Transduction Pathway

Abstract

Abstract: Abscisic acid（ABA）is a multi-functional hormone widely existing in plant, by interaction with receptors and consequently with the complex signal network, it can play the physiological roles in regulation of plant growth and development, as well as mediating adaptive responses to diverse environmental stresses. The screening and identification of abscisic acid receptors have been controversial. Recently, there are some breakthroughs in the discovery of the ABA receptors, and its signal transduction has attracted great attention again. In this paper, the latest advances on identification of ABA receptors and ABA signal transduction were reviewed, and the future developing prospects were also discussed.

Key words: Abscisic acid, Receptors, PYR/PYL/RCAR, Signal transduction
