Gene expression analyses of the calmodulin binding protein 60 family under water stress conditions in rice.

ABSTRACT: Plants have developed elaborate mechanisms for perceiving extracellular stimuli and subsequently activating defense reactions through a multifaceted interaction of signaling cascades. Calcium ion (Ca²⁺), an essential and ubiquitous intracellular second messenger molecules, whose concentration ([Ca²⁺]cyt) has been observed to rise in response to numerous environmental stresses. The calcium/calmodulin (Ca²⁺/CaM) complex triggers apposite cellular responses through modifying the activities of a varied array of CaM-binding proteins (CBPs). Among CBPs, the CBP60 gene family has been identified as key regulators of stress responses in several crop species. Recently, we have demonstrated the expanded and diversified role of OsCBP60 in rice against devastating pathogens. Here, we analyz
