Cyclic nucleotides: the current dilemma!

Curr Opin Plant Biol. 2002 Oct;5(5):425-9. doi: 10.1016/s1369-5266(02)00281-9.

Abstract

Significant advances in understanding plant cyclic nucleotide signalling have been made in the past two years. The roles of these molecules in the regulation of ionic channels, defence responses and the apical growth of cells are being uncovered.
