Calcium ions function as a key second messenger ion in eukaryotes. Spatially and
temporally defined cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals are shaped through the concerted activity of …

Abiotic and biotic stresses are major limiting factors of crop yields and cause billions of
dollars of losses annually around the world. It is hoped that understanding at the molecular …

The transient elevation of cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+] cyt) induced by cold
stress is a well‐established phenomenon; however, the underlying mechanism remains …

In 2007, the first edition of Handbook of Plant Nutrition presented a compendium of
information on the mineral nutrition of plants available at that time-and became a bestseller …

Plant annexins are Ca 2+-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins and exist as multigene
families in plants. They are implicated in the regulation of plant development as well as …

Calcium signals act as universal second messengers that trigger many cellular processes in
animals and plants, but how specific calcium signals are generated is not well understood …

Pollen tubes grow rapidly by very fast rates and reach extended lengths to bring about
fertilization during plant reproduction. The pollen tube grows exclusively at its tip …

Roots are subjected to a range of abiotic stresses as they forage for water and nutrients.
Cytosolic free calcium is a common second messenger in the signaling of abiotic stress. In …

RNA binding proteins (RBPs) control the fate and expression of a transcriptome. Despite this
fundamental importance, our understanding of plant RBPs is rudimentary, being mainly …

Cytosolic calcium signaling is critical for regulating downstream responses in plants
encountering unfavorable environmental conditions. In a genetic screen for Arabidopsis …
