Abstract

Receptors are core elements of every biochemical signaling. It is the starting point from where signal transduction comes into action inside the cell. Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are either membrane-localized or cytosolic receptors, having a characteristic kinase catalytic activity. They function to transduce information from extracellular stimuli or elicitors to the nucleus of plant cells, eventually activating specific genes responsible for plant growth, development, and stress tolerance, depending on the type of signal received. Abscisic acid (ABA), a phytohormone, regulates plant growth by modulating reproductive and vegetative growth, seed maturation, and development. Apart from normal physiological functions, ABA enables the plant to tolerate abiotic stress by accelerating stress tolerance responses. ABA also acts as an inducer for several RLKs indicating the potential role of RLKs in stress signaling pathways and responses. ABA induces RLKs for modulating various types of physiological roles via diverse signaling routes.
