Many chemicals are critical for plant growth and development and play an important role in
integrating various stress signals and controlling downstream stress responses by …

Plant annexins are ubiquitous, soluble proteins capable of Ca2+-dependent and Ca2+-
independent binding to endomembranes and the plasma membrane. Some members of this …

Few regulators of phenylpropanoids have been identified in monocots having potential as
biofuel crops. Here we demonstrate the role of the maize (Zea mays) R2R3‐MYB factor …

Potassium (K) is the most abundant inorganic cation in plants. It is required for the activation
of many enzymes, as a cellular osmoticum for rapidly expanding cells, and as a counter …

To evaluate the genotypic variation of salt stress response in tomato, physiological analyses
and a proteomic approach have been conducted in parallel on four contrasting tomato …

Plant cell growth and stress signaling require Ca2+ influx through plasma membrane
transport proteins that are regulated by reactive oxygen species. In root cell growth …

Salinity (NaCl) stress impairs plant growth and inflicts severe crop losses. In roots,
increasing extracellular NaCl causes Ca2+ influx to elevate cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+] cyt) …

Annexins act as targets of calcium signals in eukaryotic cells, and recent results suggest that
they play an important role in plant stress responses. We found that in Arabidopsis …

Annexins are small proteins capable of membrane attachment or insertion. Animal annexins
can form Ca 2+-permeable conductances in planar lipid bilayers or vesicles. Some have …

Drought and high salinity are two major abiotic stresses that significantly affect agricultural
crop productivity worldwide. Annexins are a multigene family that plays an essential role in …
