“…In plants, InsP 3 has been associated with a wide range of cellular functions, such as guard cell physiology (Blatt et al, 1990;Gilroy et al, 1990;Burnette et al, 2003;Han et al, 2003), drought tolerance (Knight et al, 1997;Perera et al, 2008), heat shock responses (Liu et al, 2006), blue light perception (Chen et al, 2008), root gravitropism (Wang et al, 2009;Zhang et al, 2011), response to mechanical wounding (Mosblech et al, 2008), and pollen dormancy (Y. . However, the role of InsP 3 and other inositol phosphates in plant signaling remains controversial as no inositol phosphate receptor has been identified to date (Munnik and Vermeer, 2010;Munnik and Nielsen, 2011;Gillaspy, 2013).…”
