Signaling in Plants [electronic resource] / edited by Stefano Mancuso, Frantiek Baluka.

Auxin and the Communication Between Plant Cells -- Integrated Calcium Signaling in Plants -- MAPK Signaling -- Integrated Nod Factor Signaling in Plants -- Physiological Roles of Cyclic Nucleotide Gated Channels in Plants -- Signaling in Vesicle Traffic: Protein-Lipid Interface in Regulation of Plant Endomembrane Dynamics -- Signaling to the Actin Cytoskeleton During Cell Morphogenesis and Patterning -- Signaling via Plant Peroxidases -- Signaling and Cell Walls -- Ionic Loops and Rebounds: Oxygen-Deprivation Signaling in Plants -- Signaling in Plant Gravitropism -- Signaling in Phototropism -- Signaling in the Circadian Clock -- Vesicle Trafficking in Plant Pathogen Defence.

This book addresses diverse aspects of signaling at all levels of plant organization, starting from single molecules; through vesicle recycling and organelles, dynamic actin cytoskeletons, and plant organs bending in response to sensory stimuli induced by abiotic cues such as gravity and light; up to the whole organism as related to its circadian clock or pathogen defense. Emphasis is placed on the integrative aspects of signaling, which foster our understanding of sensory and communicative plants in all their complexity.
