Plant signal transduction is a rapidly expanding field of research, and during the last decade a wealth of insight into how plants perceive and transmit signals as part of normal development and in response to environmental cues has been and is continuing to be unraveled. Although ?signaling cascades are often viewed as linear chains of events it is now becoming increasingly apparent, through the use of cell biological, molecular and genetic approaches, that plant signal transduction involves extensive cross-talk between different pathways. The numerous interactions and intersections which take place are potentially important to modulate and balance the various inputs from different signaling cascades so that plants can integrate all this information to execute the proper developmental responses.
植物信号转导是一个迅速发展的研究领域，在过去十年里，关于植物如何作为正常发育的一部分以及对环境线索做出反应来感知和传递信号的大量见解已经并且仍在不断被揭示。尽管信号级联通常被视为线性的事件链，但通过细胞生物学、分子和遗传学方法，现在越来越明显的是，植物信号转导涉及不同途径之间广泛的相互作用。发生的众多相互作用和交叉对于调节和平衡来自不同信号级联的各种输入可能很重要，以便植物能够整合所有这些信息来执行适当的发育反应。
