Understanding Plant Signaling

When faced with biotic or abiotic stresses, plants alter their metabolic networks through internal signaling pathways to tolerate or overcome the stress.

 

The signalling pathways involve a diverse range of chemical compounds which are dependent on plants' genetics.

 

Signaling occurs throughout a plant's lifetime and is essential for survival under the growth conditions they face.
