Calcium is an essential macronutrient for plants and functions in signal transduction. Regulation of the cytosolic calcium concentration is required for normal cell growth. In calcium homeostasis in plant cells, Ca super(2+)/H super(+) exchangers are involved in Ca super(2+) compartmentalization int...
