<p>Many climate models predict that water stress will increasingly challenge agricultural yields and exacerbate projected food deficits. To maintain a stable food supply, the improvement of water use in wheat crop production is essential to overcome water resource deficiencies. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) has critical roles for drought stress tolerance and the control of transpiration from leaves. In this report, we introduce that enhancing the response of ABA signaling using an ABA receptor can confer drought stress tolerance and increase water use efficiency (i.e., the ratio of CO2 assimilation to transpiration). We developed an ABA-receptor-overexpressing wheat (TaPYLox) that exhibited significantly lower total lifetime water consumption and increased biomass and grain production per liter of water consumption. Improved water use efficiency in TaPYLox was attributed to the increased photosynthetic activity in the leaves. TaPYLox also alleviated the decline of seed productivity and grain quality under reduced water conditions. Our findings provide a general strategy for increasing water productivity that should be portable to other crops due to the high conservation of the ABA signaling pathway.</p>
