The histidine kinase AHK5 integrates endogenous and environmental signals in Arabidopsis guard cells (2008)
Journal Article
Desikan, R., Horák, J., Chaban, C., Mira-Rodado, V., Witthöft, J., Elgass, K., …Harter, K. (2008). The histidine kinase AHK5 integrates endogenous and environmental signals in Arabidopsis guard cells. PLoS ONE, 3(6), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0002491

Background: Stomatal guard cells monitor and respond to environmental and endogenous signals such that the stomatal aperture is continually optimised for water use efficiency. A key signalling molecule produced in guard cells in response to plant hor... Read More about The histidine kinase AHK5 integrates endogenous and environmental signals in Arabidopsis guard cells.

Tools to investigate ROS sensitive signalling proteins (2008)
Journal Article
Desikan, R., Neill, S., Slinn, J., & Hancock, J. T. (2008). Tools to investigate ROS sensitive signalling proteins. Methods in Molecular Biology, 476, 87-99. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-59745-129-1_7

The thiols groups of cysteine residues on proteins are attractive oxidative targets for modification by reactive oxygen species, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Such modification can lead to important cellular signaling processes that ultimately re... Read More about Tools to investigate ROS sensitive signalling proteins.

Nitric oxide, stomatal closure, and abiotic stress (2008)
Journal Article
Ribeiro, D., Harrison, J., Neill, S., Barros, R. S., Bright, J., Desikan, R., …Wilson, I. D. (2008). Nitric oxide, stomatal closure, and abiotic stress. Journal of Experimental Botany, 59(2), 165-176. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erm293

Various data indicate that nitric oxide (NO) is an endogenous signal in plants that mediates responses to several stimuli. Experimental evidence in support of such signalling roles for NO has been obtained via the application of NO, usually in the fo... Read More about Nitric oxide, stomatal closure, and abiotic stress.

Nitric oxide evolution and perception (2008)
Journal Article
Harrison, J., Neill, S., Bright, J., Desikan, R., Hancock, J. T., & Wilson, I. D. (2008). Nitric oxide evolution and perception. Journal of Experimental Botany, 59(1), 25-35. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/erm218

Various experimental data indicate signalling roles for nitric oxide (NO) in processes such as xylogenesis, programmed cell death, pathogen defence, flowering, stomatal closure, and gravitropism. However, it still remains unclear how NO is synthesize... Read More about Nitric oxide evolution and perception.

Antioxidative responses in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants stressed by copper and lead in nutrient solution and soil (2008)
Journal Article
Teklic, T., Hancock, J. T., Engler, M., Paradikovic, N., Cesar, V., Lepeduš, H., …Bešlo, D. (2008). Antioxidative responses in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants stressed by copper and lead in nutrient solution and soil. Acta Biologica Cracoviensia Series Botanica, 50(2), 79-86

Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) is commonly grown in urban and suburban areas where the soil may be polluted with heavy metals such as Cu or Pb. In this study, short exposure of radish plantlets to 0.5 mM Cu or Pb in nutrient solution (two days) in grow...

Nitric oxide signalling in plants (2008)
Journal Article
Wilson, I. D., Neill, S., & Hancock, J. T. (2008). Nitric oxide signalling in plants. Plant, Cell and Environment, 31(5), 622-631. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3040.2007.01761.x

As with all organisms, plants must respond to a plethora of external environmental cues. Individual plant cells must also perceive and respond to a wide range of internal signals. It is now well-accepted that nitric oxide (NO) is a component of the r... Read More about Nitric oxide signalling in plants.
