Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ca2+, a versatile intracellular second messenger in various signaling pathways, initiates many responses involved in growth, defense and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress. Endogenous and exogenous signals induce cytoplasmic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]cyt) elevation, which are responsible for the appropriate downstream responses. RESULTS: Here we report on an ethyl-methane sulfonate-mediated Arabidopsis mutant...
