4.1 ABA levels and xylem embolism resistance Our results show that the internal levels of ABA do not impact the embolism resistance of stems of young (60 days old) plants of tomato in a similar way to what was observed for very old (170 day old) plants (Lamarque et al., 2020). This result contrasts with the negative impact of increased ABA levels on the stem embolism resistance of tomato plants at 90 and 120 days old (Lamarque et al., 2020).
