1. S ALT AND D ROUGHT S TRESS S IGNAL T RANSDUCTION IN P LANTSAnnual Review of Plant Biology · 2002 · 5,930 citations

   Salt and drought stress signal transduction consists of ionic and osmotic homeostasis signaling pathways, detoxification (i.e., damage control and repair) response pathways, and pathways for growth regulation. The ionic aspect of salt stress is signaled via the SOS pathway where…

2. P LANT C ELLULAR AND M OLECULAR R ESPONSES TO H IGH S ALINITYAnnual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology · 2000 · 4,618 citations

   Plant responses to salinity stress are reviewed with emphasis on molecular mechanisms of signal transduction and on the physiological consequences of altered gene expression that affect biochemical reactions downstream of stress sensing. We make extensive use of comparisons with model…

3. Abscisic Acid Inhibits Type 2C Protein Phosphatases via the PYR/PYL Family of START ProteinsScience · 2009 · 3,089 citations

   ABA Receptor Rumbled? The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is critical for normal development and for mediating plant responses to stressful environmental conditions. Now, two papers present analyses of candidate ABA receptors (see the news story by Pennisi ). Ma…
