摘要

Plants are constantly exposed to a changing and often unfavourable environment which has led to the evolution of adaptive strategies that permit plant cells to sense environmental stimuli and to activate responses that allow avoidance or survival of environmental stresses. A central theme in the current research in stress biology has been the elucidation of signalling pathways and their components controlling the stress-response regulons. Efforts have been directed by several laboratories across the globe to understand how environmental cues are sensed and transduced to the level of gene expression. A number of interacting signal pathways appear to control the activation of stress-responsive genes. Sensing environment by plants must involve a highly precise, specific and finely-regulated mechanism in the form of 'language'. Over the years, search for such a 'language' has narrowed down to a divalent cation, calcium (Ca2+), that acts as a ubiquitous messenger in the responses of a cell to the environment. With the advent of some novel techniques, the measurement of intracellular Ca2+ concentration has become easy. This has led to unequivocal evidences for involvement of Ca2+ in several plant responses to the environment. Since development of crops tolerant to abiotic stresses is an important aspect in agricultural research, understanding the involvement of Ca2+, in facing these challenges becomes imperative and worthwhile. Hence, the present review focuses on some recent aspects of Ca2+ functioning in relation to some selective abitoic factors.
