Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Functional impairment of AMI1 increased stress status in Arabidopsis.
- Intervention effect Functional impairment of AMI1 increased susceptibility to abiotic stresses.
- Observation ami1 mutants showed reprogramming of stress-related genes including jasmonic acid and ABA biosynthesis genes.
- Observation ami1 mutants had moderately repressed growth.
- Observation ami1 mutants showed enhanced ABA accumulation.
- Mechanism The authors infer that AMI1 helps coordinate growth and stress responses by balancing auxin and ABA homeostasis.
