Reactive oxygen species(ROS)production is a conserved immune response in Arabidopsis primarily medi-ated by respiratory burst oxidase homolog D(RBOHD),a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADPH)oxidase associ...
Phosphorus is one of mineral elements essential for plant growth and development.To cope with low phosphate(Pi)conditions,plants have evolved complex signaling mechanisms including the inositol phosphate(InsP)signalin...
