Two maize lines previously shown to differ in drought score and ABA accumulation capacity in the field were used for a field trial in order to investigate the effects of drought on leaf and root ABA content, water status and stomatal conductance. The results indicate genotypic differences in drought-induced leaf and root ABA accumulation capacity between investigated lines and significant dependence of stomatal behaviour on ABA deriving from the roots.
