摘　　要：The past two decades revealed a plethora of Ca^2＋-responsive proteins and downstream targets in plants, of which several are unique to plants. More recent high-throughput ＇omics＂ approaches and bioinformatics are exposing Ca^2＋-responsive cis-elements and the corresponding Ca^2＋-responsive genes. Here, we review the current knowledge on Ca^2＋-signaling pathways that regulate gene expression in plants, and we link these to mechanisms by which plants respond to biotic and abiotic stresses.The past two decades revealed a plethora of Ca^2＋-responsive proteins and downstream targets in plants, of which several are unique to plants.
