This volume provides conceptual strategies and methodological know-how over a wide range of stress situations that can be used as stepping stones to unravel the intricacies of abiotic stress signaling networks in plants. Chapters guide readers through achievements and challenges in the field and through up-to-date protocols covering identification of novel processes, validation of hypothetical mechanisms, and further characterization of currently-known pathways. Written in the format of the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, wet-lab chapters include an introduction to the topic, lists necessary materials and methods, includes tips on troubleshooting and known pitfalls, and step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Plant Abiotic Stress Signaling aims to be a comprehensive and innovative guide for students and researchers seeking to understand plant molecular mechanisms at the interface with environmental constraints and climate change.
Signal Crosstalk in Plant Stress Responses focuses on current findings on signal crosstalk between abiotic and biotic stresses, including information on drought, cold, and salt stress and pathogen infection. Divided into seven chapters on critical topics in the field, the book is written by an international team of expert authors. The book is aimed at plant scientists, agronomists, and horticulturalists, as well as students.
Plant Signaling Molecule: Role and Regulation under Stressful Environments explores tolerance mechanisms mediated by signaling molecules in plants for achieving sustainability under changing environmental conditions. Including a wide range of potential molecules, from primary to secondary metabolites, the book presents the status and future prospects of the role and regulation of signaling molecules at physiological, biochemical, molecular and structural level under abiotic stress tolerance. This book is designed to enhance the mechanistic understanding of signaling molecules and will be an important resource for plant biologists in developing stress tolerant crops to achieve sustainability under changing environmental conditions. Focuses on plant biology under stress conditions Provides a compendium of knowledge related to plant adaptation, physiology, biochemistry and molecular responses Identifies treatments that enhance plant tolerance to abiotic stresses Illustrates specific physiological pathways that are considered key points for plant adaptation or tolerance to abiotic stresses
Plant growth and development is controlled by environmental cues (e.g. light, salinity) that are sensed by the plant via a variety of signal transduction pathways. This book gives an up-to-date summary of the large amount of information that is now available on the processes involved in the communication of plants with their environment.
Facing stressful conditions imposed by their environment and affecting their growth and their development throughout their life cycle, plants must be able to perceive, to process and to translate different stimuli into adaptive responses. Understanding the organism-coordinated responses involves a fine description of the mechanisms occurring at the cellular and molecular level. A major challenge is also to understand how the large diversity of molecules identified as signals, sensors or effectors could drive a cell to the appropriate plant response and to finally cope with various environmental cues. In this Research Topic we aim to provide an overview of various signaling mechanisms or to present new molecular signals involved in stress response and to demonstrate how basic/fundamental research on cell signaling will help to understand stress responses at the whole plant level.
This special issue of The Enzymes is targeted towards researchers in biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, pharmacology, and cancer. This volume discusses signaling pathways in plants. Contributions from leading authorities Informs and updates on all the latest developments in the field
Plant tolerance to heat stress proved to be entirely dependent on the signa-ling flow of information by which the plant can sense the changes in its surrounding environment and signal its genes to respond by producing special proteins to protect it-self. Any changes or manipulations in this signaling flow of information will presumably lead to a modification in the genetic expression inside the plant cells, consequently, changing plant per-formance. Understanding these signaling events in response to heat may help us to produce heat tolerant plants capable to stand high temperature stress. In the present investigation, the results showed that a heat activated MAP kinase cascade, involving heat activated MAP kinase (HAMK), played an essential role in heat shock gene expression in tobacco BY-2 cells. In order to determine if heat activation of HAMK involved additional pathways of signaling we studied the upstream regulation of HAMK, including membrane fluidization and reorganization of cytoskeleton. The activation of HAMK and accumulation of heat responsive HSFs, HSP70 and HSP27 proteins were used as end-point markers in these experiments. It is concluded that the heat shock response, as measured by HAMK activation and heat shock proteins accu-mulation required PKC activation, membrane fluidization and reorganization of the cytoskeleton. A comparative bioinformatic explanation of similarities between tobacco heat shock genes and their counterparts in different organisms revealed a high degree of evolutionary conservation in the corres-ponding domains, indicating similar function in different species.
This edited volume offers an insightful overview of contemporary research on signaling pathways. These signaling processes are the comprehensive mechanisms by which all cellular organisms communicate internally and externally with their microenvironment. The volume is focused on heat shock proteins (HSP), which are uniquely involved in a number of critical signaling pathways. Errors in signaling pathways and in the processing of cellular information are known to be responsible for the majority of diseases including cancer, inflammatory and neurological disorders. The knowledge gained from better understanding these mechanisms can help in elucidating disease processes and will assist in development and design of novel targeted treatment therapies to combat human diseases and disorders. Key basic and clinical research laboratories from major universities, academic medical hospitals, biotechnology and pharmaceutical laboratories around the world have contributed chapters that review present research activity and importantly project the field into the future. The book is a must read for graduate students. medical students, basic science researchers and postdoctoral scholars in the fields of Translational Medicine, Clinical Research, Human Physiology, Biotechnology, Cell & Molecular Medicine, Pharmaceutical Scientists and Researchers involved in Drug Discovery.
Understanding abiotic stress responses in plants is critical for the development of new varieties of crops, which are better adapted to harsh climate conditions. The new book by the well-known editor team Narendra Tuteja and Sarvajeet Gill provides a comprehensive overview on the molecular basis of plant responses to external stress like drought or heavy metals, to aid in the engineering of stress resistant crops. After a general introduction into the topic, the following sections deal with specific signaling pathways mediating plant stress response. The last part covers translational plant physiology, describing several examples of the development of more stress-resistant crop varieties.
