Location, characteristics and occasions for synthesis induction
- Desiccation
- Effect of elevated ABA levels
- JA-induced proteins are lacking in the roots, in bleached leaves, and in leaves that are chlorophyll-deficient
Effects
- Growth inhibition
- Senescence promotion
- Wound response stimulation
- Germination inhibition
- Tuber formation promotion
- Fruit ripening and fruit abscission promotion
- Pigment formation promotion
- Plant defense (possible role)
- In very low concentrations, growth promotion
