SharePostharvest changes in endogenous ABA levels and ABA metabolism in relation to dormancy in potato tubers.
Author(s) : SUTTLE J. C.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The results demonstrate that abscisic acids (ABA) is readily metabolized by potato tubers and that the principal route of catabolism consists of the oxidative metabolism of ABA to phaseic and dihydrophaseic acids with minimal esterification to conjugated ABA. These results also suggest that a decline in endogenous ABA below a threshold level is not a prerequisite for the loss of potato tuber dormancy and the onset of sprout growth.
