CONFERENCE ON PLANT SIGNALING PATHWAYS

植物信号通路中的相互作用和交叉点。信号通路是高等植物发育的基础。许多研究表明，看似独立的信号通路相互作用，如对细胞分裂素、乙烯和光的反应，或交叉，如光周期和赤霉素对开花的调控。这次会议将集中讨论细胞生物学和分子遗传学方法的最新结果，这些方法强调不同途径之间的相互作用和交叉在植物发育以及植物对环境胁迫和病原体的反应中所起的作用。课程将涵盖许多不同的主题，包括调节对激素和环境信号的反应的途径之间的相互作用，需要通过两条或不同的途径传递信号的发展计划，以及参与正常植物发育的途径与参与抗病的途径之间的关系。

Interactions and Intersections in Plant Signaling Pathways. Signalling pathways underpin development in higher plants. Many studies have revealed that seemingly independent signaling pathways interact with each other, as in the case of responses to cytokinins, ethylene and light, or intersect as in the case of regulation of flowering by both photoperiod and giberrellins. This meeting will focus on recent results from cell biological and molecular genetic approaches which emphasize the role played by such interactions and intersections between different pathways in plant development, as well as in plant responses to environmental stresses and pathogens. A number of different topics will be covered, including interactions between pathways mediating responses to hormonal and environmental cues, development programs that require the transductions of signals through two or distinct pathways for initiation, and the relationships of pathways involved in normal plant development to those involved in disease resistance.
