Description for Ion Channels and Plant Stress Responses
Paperback. Providing a range of perspectives on the topic, this overview presents the role of ion channels in plant stress responses. New insights into plant CA2+ signaling, salinity tolerance mechanisms, cyclic nucleotide gated channels and more are covered. Editor(s): Demidchik, Vadim; Maathuis, Frans J.M. Series: Signaling and Communication in Plants. Num Pages: 247 pages, 13 black & white illustrations, 15 colour illustrations, 7 black & white tables, biograph. BIC Classification: PSB; PSTD; PSTP; TVB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 15. Weight in Grams: 385.
Plants live in a constantly changing environment from which they cannot physically escape. Plants therefore need signalling and response mechanisms to adapt to new local conditions. The ef?cacy of such mechanisms underlies the plant performance during stress and therefore also impacts greatly on agricultural productivity. M- ulation of ion channel activity not only provides a means for rapid signal generation 2+ but also allows adjustment of cellular physiology. For example, Ca permeable ion 2+ channels can transduce environmental stimuli into Ca -encoded messages which can modify the gene expression. Furthermore, ion channel activity is essential to control cellular ion homeostasis ... Read more
