GABA: a key player of abiotic stress regulation

Plant Signal Behav. 2023 Dec 31;18(1):2163343. doi: 10.1080/15592324.2022.2163343.

Abstract

Abiotic stress is considered as the main culprit for reduction of global food production. Recent studies have reported GABA as a major regulator of abiotic stress and thus opening new avenues in research on emerging roles of GABA in abiotic stress acclimation in plants.

Keywords: Aminobutyric acid (GABA); heat stress; light stress; stress acclimation; yield.
