Plants are unable to escape from harsh environments and perhaps as a consequence have evolved the ability to undergo adaptive changes in physiology and development. The mechanisms by which plants sense environmental stresses, transduce signals into cells and regulate cellular and organismal alterations are incompletely understood. They take a molecular genetic approach to investigating these aspects of plant biology.
