Photoreceptors and Photosensory Signaling and Communication in Plants: Light Signaling in Plants - Soumya Mukherjee

This book explores the fascinating role of light signaling in regulating plant growth, development, and communication, an area of research that has captivated scientists since the post-Darwin era. This edited book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge on photoreceptors and photosensory communication in plants, covering mechanisms, signaling pathways, and potential applications. Photoreceptors and photosensory communication play critical roles in regulating plant growth, development, and responses of gene expression to environmental stimuli. The book will provide an updated information on the strategies of stress tolerance and crop productivity by means of photoreceptor engineering and protein remodeling in response to light signaling. The book shall be beneficial in highlighting the role of various signaling molecules in response to light signaling.
