Root ABA accumulation enhances rice seedling drought tolerance under ammonium supply: interaction with aquaporins
In previous studies, we demonstrated that ammonium nutrition enhances the drought tolerance of rice seedlings compared to nitrate nutrition and contributes to a higher root water uptake ability. It remains unclear why rice seedlings maintain a higher water uptake ability when supplied with ammonium...
