Abscisic acid (ABA) content and relative water content (RWC) in second fully expanded leaves of cold hardened plants and in dehydrated leaves of freezing tolerant barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Lunet) were compared. ABA content and RWC in leaves did not change during the first day of cold hardening. On the contrary, dehydration of leaves led to a decrease of RWC and to an increase of ABA content.

Keywords: abscisic acid; cold hardening; frost; Hordeum vulgare; low temperature; relative water content
Subjects: abscisic acid; barley, abscisic acid, low temperature; cold hardening; Hordeum vulgare; relative water content; temperature stress
