Abstract
Calcium ions act as secondary messengers in diverse signaling pathways in plants throughout their life cycle. Studies have revealed that calcium is involved in developmental events and in responses to external stimuli, such as biotic and abiotic stresses. Cellular calcium ion levels are tightly controlled by intricate molecular machinery such as calcium channels and pumps. Transient and spatial fluctuations in calcium levels are subsequently recognized by diverse calcium-decoding molecules, resulting in signal transduction. In this review, we highlight recent findings on natural variations in genes controlling calcium signaling in diverse plant biological processes. We then show how the calcium ion context is utilized by fine-tuning the natural variation in centrally important genes.
期刊介绍：
Molecules and Cells is an international on-line open-access journal devoted to the advancement and dissemination of fundamental knowledge in molecular and cellular biology. It was launched in 1990 and ISO abbreviation is ''Mol. Cells''. Reports on a broad range of topics of general interest to molecular and cell biologists are published. It is published on the last day of each month by the Korean Society for Molecular and Cellular Biology.
