Water stress induced an increase in endogenous concentrations of ABA in Lavandula stoechas L. plants to 13100 pmol ABA g-1 FW, which may contribute to the maintenance of water relations between the second and the third day of water stress treatment. After the third day, a sharp decrease in ABA levels was observed to 2630 pmol ABA g-1 FW, together with a decrease in water content and water potential and a loss of plant response to water stress. Water deficit did not induce an increase in endogenous ABA concentration, which remained at 514 pmol ABA g-1 FW in Rosmarinus officinalis L., which is more sclerophyllous than L. stoechas. Nevertheless, the relative water content of Rosmarinus officinalis L. after seven days of water stress decreased more than 40% and water potential reached values of -3.2 MPa. R. officinalis showed lower levels of ABA, but significantly higher levels of IAA and ZR than L. stoechas (4 times and 6 times respectively in well watered-plants). The increase in ABA levels is not a common mechanism in these two Mediterranean shrubs which survive under water stress conditions.
