ABA-mediated regulation of leaf and root hydraulic conductance in tomato grown at elevated CO2 is associated with altered gene expression of aquaporins

Abstract Elevated CO2 concentration in the air (e[CO2]) decreases stomatal density (SD) and stomatal conductance (g s) where abscisic acid (ABA) may play a role, yet the underlying mechanism remains largely elusive. We investigated the effects of e[CO2] (800 ppm) on leaf gas exchange and water relat...
