Ca2+ signals are core transducers and regulators in many adaptation and developmental
processes of plants. Ca2+ signals are represented by stimulus-specific signatures that result …

This review article covers various facets of cereal α-amylase research, ie definition, history,
types, sources, classification based on their mode of action, assay methods, molecular basis …

Contamination of agricultural soil by arsenic (As) is a serious menace to environmental
safety and global food security. Symbiotic plant–microbe interaction, such as arbuscular …

▪ Abstract The spatial and temporal regulation of calcium concentration in plant cells
depends on the coordinate activities of channels and active transporters located on different …

During germination of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seeds, important morphological and
physiological changes take place, including development of organs and tissues and …

Hundreds of genes reside in structurally complex, poorly understood regions of the human
genome,,. One such region contains the three amylase genes (AMY2B, AMY2A and AMY1) …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the regulation of synthesis and transport of
secreted proteins in cereal aleurone. It is one of the few digestive tissues found in plants …

Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most perilous soil contaminants, restricting growth and yielding
potential of crop plants. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can impart Cd stress tolerance …

The effects of gibberellic acid (GA3) and abscisic acid (ABA) on the temporal and spatial
dynamics of cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+] i) in aleurone protoplasts of barley …

Though the three-dimensional structures of barley α-amylase isozymes AMY1 and AMY2
are very similar, they differ remarkably from each other in their affinity for Ca 2+ and when …
