Abstract excerpt
Recently, we reported the role of Arabidopsis cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel (AtCNGC) 11 and 12 in Ca2+-dependent physiological responses. AtCNGC11 and 12 have been reported to be involved in plant immunity, but whether these channels play additional physiological roles was not clear before. Using single and double knockout mutants, we have found that these channels play significant roles in Ca2+ signaling,...
