The role of plant hormones as modifiers of sensitivity to air pollutants and other stresses
1995
Lucas, P.W. | Wolfended, J. (Lancaster Univ., (United Kingdom). Institute of Environmental and Biological Sciences)
Plant hormones play a major role in the development and control of a wide range of plant physiological processes. Here we examine the ways in which they may influence the response of plants to air pollutants both indirectly, for example through the control of stomatal behaviour by ABA and directly, through their reactions with oxidising pollutants, which can lead to the formation of further damaging molecular species.
