Plasma membrane protein OsMCA1 is involved in regulation of hypo-osmotic shock-induced Ca<sup>2+ </sup>influx and modulates generation of reactive oxygen species in cultured rice cells

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Mechanosensing and its downstream responses are speculated to involve sensory complexes containing Ca<sup>2+</sup>-permeable mechanosensitive channels. On recognizing osmotic signals, plant cells initiate activation of a...
