Interaction Between Brassinosteroids and Hydrogen Peroxide Networking Signal Molecules in Plants

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Brassinosteroids Signalling

Abstract

Brassinosteroids (BRs) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are considered as profound signaling molecules that govern a diverse range of fundamental physiological and metabolic processes in plants from germination to senescence as well as mechanisms for adaptation to environmental changes. The physiology of H2O2 typically contains numerous possible mechanisms for maintaining the cellular processes of BR, which are implicated in important plant functions and stress responses. This chapter summarizes the overview of current understanding of the signaling of BRs and H2O2 and their interplay in modulating plant growth and development, in particular seed germination, root growth, stomatal movement, leaf senescence and fruit ripening. As well as providing an overview of their interaction under diverse abiotic stress factors. More importantly, gene expression by mitogen-activated protein kinases (MPKs), BRASSINAZOLE RESISTANT 1 (BZR1), BRI1-EMS SUPPRESSOR 1 (BES1), SlNAC2 and other transcription factors which modulate abiotic stresses in plants has also been sectioned.
