••
TL;DR: Evidence suggests that aprotein kinase complex consisting of the myristoylated calcium-binding protein SOS3 and the serine/threonine protein kinase SOS2 is activated by a salt-stress-elicited calcium signal, which phosphorylates and activates various ion transporters, such as the plasma membrane Na(+)/H(+) antiporter SOS1.

••
TL;DR: New developments in understanding pectin structure, function, and biosynthesis indicate that these polysaccharides have roles in both primary and secondary cell walls.

••
TL;DR: Systematic screens for knockout mutations in MYB genes, followed by phenotypic analyses and the dissection of mutants with interesting phenotypes, have started to unravel the functions of the 125 R2R3-MYB genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.

••
TL;DR: This work has shown that several genes with various functions are induced by drought and cold stresses, and that various transcription factors are involved in the regulation of stress-inducible genes.

TL;DR: Recently, a major transcription system that controls abscisic-acid-independent gene expression in response to dehydration and low temperature has been identified and it includes the DRE/CRT (dehydration-responsive element/C-repeat) cis-acting element and its DNA-bindingprotein, DREB/CBF (DRE-binding protein/ C-repeat binding factor).
