Regulation of Intercellular Transport Through Plasmodesmata Under Abiotic Stresses

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Symplasmic Transport in Vascular Plants

Abstract

Plants are often subjected to environmental stresses. Except many responses, unfavourable conditions may affect intercellular communication by significantly changing the rate and efficiency of symplasmic transport. This can involve changes in the ultrastructure of plasmodesmata. Furthermore, the modification can concern the surroundings of plasmodesmata through deposition of callose. Thus, understanding the mechanisms that control permeability of plasmodesmata under stress conditions is of fundamental importance. This chapter presents structural changes of plasmodesmata in relation to the symplasmic transport efficiency under abiotic stress conditions. Responses of plasmodesmata to external stimuli are discussed in terms of plant acclimation to unfavourable conditions. The role of plasmodesmata in plant adaptation to different habitats is also considered.
