Full Description

Plant Receptors in Cellular Signaling: Key Regulators during Development and Stress Adaptation presents insights into structural and functional aspects of diverse plant receptors and their participation in signaling transduction pathways. This comprehensive compilation of the latest research and understanding into the important role of receptor-mediated phytohormone signaling identifies the various classes of receptors and receptor complexes, their interaction with hormones and growth regulators, as well as exploring the regulation of signaling components and gene expression. Presenting structural and functional aspects of diverse plant receptors and their participation in signaling transduction pathways, the book demonstrates the relationship between various membrane-bound receptors and cytoplasmic receptor-like kinases, which play crucial roles in hormone signaling and vital physiological processes. Plant Receptors in Cellular Signaling: Key Regulators during Development and Stress Adaptation explains the mechanistic operation of receptors as they relate to major phytohormone, growth regulators and metabolites. This insight enables understanding of the highly evolved surveillance system that is capable of detecting a broad range of signals generated by altered developmental process, tissue damage, pathogens and others that in turn initiate additional sophisticated molecular mechanisms of cell signaling. This book will be beneficial to academics and researchers working on various receptors and cellular signaling mechanism in plants, and in related fields including hormone signaling, stress physiology and gene expression analysis.
