Signalling in plants

In this focus

Over the last decade our understanding of plant signalling pathways has increased a great extent, in part due to the use of genetic tools in Arabidopsis. This has assisted in the identification of hormonal, developmental and environmental signal transduction pathways and cross-talk between them. A flavour of the excitement in the plant signalling pathways field can be obtained in the research articles and reviews presented in this Nature web focus.
