Abstract

To establish or disestablish a role for PtdIns (4,5)P2-directed PLC in the transduction of physiological signals in plants: ABA in stomatal guard cells. To define how inositol phospholipids regulate membrane trafficking events in plants. Specifically, vacuolar vesiculation and homotypic fusion in stomatal guard cells and exocytosis in oat aleurone protoplasts. To develop long-term collaborations with UK signalling groups which will keep UK research at the forefront of world signalling research.
