Abstract excerpt
Seed germination is the initial step of the whole life cycle for an individual plant, and thus it needs to be tightly controlled to avoid plant growth under unfavorable conditions. Here, we report that FERONIA (FER), a receptor-like kinase, controls early seed germination under ABA conditions. FER interacts with and phosphorylates cytosolic ABA receptor kinase 1 (CARK1) protein, a receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase...
