Harmonious integrated functioning of the whole plant system requires that itsvarious cells tissues and organs should be able to communicate with eachother transferring a range of information on environmental conditionsphysiological and microbial stresses etc. In this volume of Advances inBotanical Research incorporating Advances in Plant Pathology three articles areconcerned with different aspects of plant signalling.McDonald and Davis consider how shoot systems respond to drying and Ndeficientsoil in terms of their stomatal behaviour and growth via the transmission ofrootderived chemical signals. Malone considers the major hypotheses that havebeen proposed with particular attention being given to hydraulic pressuresignals and the hydraulic dispersal of chemical signals. At a differentintracellular level of communication a wide variety of second messengerscouple extracellular stimuli to a characteristic physiological response. Webbet al. Consider progress made in establishing similar roles for calcium inplant signalling in the context of the mammalian paradigms.The effects of UVB radiation on plants have been extensively investigated inrecent years. Jordan considers progress in understanding the chain of eventsfrom perception of UVB to signal transduction and consequent changes in geneexpression and regulation.Smith and Smith assess the various hypotheses erected over the years to explainstructure and function of the hostparasite interface formed by vesticulararbuscular VA mycorrhizas an important and widespread mutualistic symbiosesof a wide range of higher and some lower plants. «
