The regulation of the phosphorylation/dephosphorylation process,
resulting in "cellular switches" that monitor normal plant
physiology, growth and development, has immense potential in crop
systems. With much of the information in the nascent stages, coming
largely from Arabidopsis and rice particularly, the use of cell
biology, genetic screens, biochemical approaches aided by an omics
approach should help unravel the detail functional information
available about signaling pathways in plants. The regulation could
be exploited to develop crop varieties better equipped to handle
changing environments and enhance agricultural productivity. In the
post-genomic era, one of the major challenges is investigation and
understanding of multiple genes and gene families regulating a
particular physiological and developmental aspect of plant life
cycle. One of the important physiological processes is regulation
of stress response, which leads to adaptation or adjustment in
response to adverse stimuli. With the holistic understanding of the
signaling pathways involving phosphatases, one gene family or
multiple genes or gene families, plant biologist can lay a
foundation for designing and generating future crops, which can
withstand the higher degree of environmental stresses. Especially
abiotic stresses, which are the major cause of crop loss throughout
the world without losing crop yield and productivity. This book
incorporates the contributions from leading plant biologists in the
field of stress-mediated dephosphorylation by phosphatases as an
important task to elucidate the aspects of stress signaling by
functional genomic approaches.
