Calcium is an essential plant nutrient. It is required for various structural roles in the cell wall
and membranes, it is a counter‐cation for inorganic and organic anions in the vacuole, and …

Calcium channels are involved principally in signal transduction. Their opening results in
increased cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration, and the spatial and temporal variations in this …

Calcium is an essential and major plant nutrient. It is required for structural, osmotic and
signalling purposes. In this review the pathway and molecular mechanisms are described by …

Eukaryotic cells generate cytosolic Ca 2+ signals via Ca 2+-conducting channels in cellular
membranes. Plants and animals exhibit substantial differences in their complement of Ca 2+ …

Steep concentration gradients of many ions are actively maintained, with lower
concentrations typically located in the cytosol, and higher concentrations in organelles and …

Calcium (Ca) is a unique macronutrient with diverse but fundamental physiological roles in
plant structure and signalling. In the majority of crops the largest proportion of long-distance …
