Abscisic Acid Boosts Proline Levels in Barley Leaves for Stress Resistance.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY
The Mechanism of Abscisic Acid-induced Proline Accumulation in Barley Leaves

Paper Summary

Barley leaves accumulate proline when treated with abscisic acid, but only after being pretreated with sucrose and glutamate. This accumulation happens after a 3- to 4-hour delay and only in leaves from plants exposed to light for 24 hours.
