Plant Receptors in Cellular Signaling provides a comprehensive account of how plants perceive and respond to internal and external cues through receptor-mediated pathways. The volume integrates structural, functional, and mechanistic perspectives to examine the diverse spectrum of plant receptors--including phytohormone receptors, growth regulator receptors, receptor-like kinases, and multiprotein complexes--that orchestrate growth, development, and survival under changing conditions.

The book explains receptor functions in auxin, gibberellin, cytokinin, abscisic acid, ethylene, jasmonate, salicylic acid, brassinosteroid, strigolactone, and karrikin signaling, while also addressing membranebound and cytoplasmic kinases, glutamate-like receptors, and other critical signaling components. By linking structural biology with functional outcomes, it shows how protein conformation and ligand recognition determine specificity and regulatory control.

Emphasizing the interplay and crosstalk among receptor-mediated pathways, the text demonstrates how plants translate complex signals into precise cellular responses that regulate gene expression, coordinate development, and enable adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Rich in mechanistic detail and conceptual breadth, Plant Receptors in Cellular Signaling is an essential reference for researchers and academics in plant biology, molecular signaling, stress physiology, and related fields seeking to understand how plants transform signals into adaptive strategies.
