Experimental results of increasing βs. Arrows denote the change in behaviour from wild-type Arabidopsis to a mutant line where a transgenically introduced positive feedback circuit enhances the hormone synthesis pathway via βs. (a) Absolute ABA levels are generally both increased and harmonized with βs. (b) Germination propensity (inversely linked to ABA) generally decreases with βs, with noise in germination propensity also decreasing with βs, in line with higher, more harmonized ABA levels.
