| Abstract | "'Calcium Transport Elements in Plants' provides an essential body of knowledge on calcium signaling in plants and its role in plant stress regulation. Calcium transport elements are involved in various structural, physiological, and biochemical processes or signal transduction pathways in response to various abiotic and biotic stimuli, functioning by mediating the transport of calcium ions (Ca2+) across cell membranes. Development of high-throughput sequencing technology has favored the identification and characterization of numerous gene families in plants in the recent years, including calcium transport elements. Introductory chapters include the role of calcium in plant development and stress signaling, the mechanism of Ca2+ homeostasis across plant membranes, and the evolution of calcium transport elements in plants. Subsequent chapters discuss the detailed functions of various transport elements involved in Ca2+ efflux, such as Ca2+ exchangers. In addition to transporter proteins, the book includes a few chapters related to CaM, CMLs, BCLs and CIPKs, and CAMTA involved in signal decoding and relay. Finally, this book discusses calcium transport in cellular organelles like chloroplast and mitochondria, the mechanism of Ca2+ uptake, translocation and homeostasis, interaction between Ca2+ and ROS signaling, calcium biofortification for nutritional enrichment, and methods for detection of Ca2+ in plant tissue"--Page 4 of cover. |
