Long-distance signaling in plant stress response.

Vascular plants respond to various environmental stresses by integrating and transmitting environmental information perceived by roots and leaves, respectively. Long-distance signaling plays a crucial role in plant adaptation to and subsequent survival to severe environmental conditions. Recent studies have elucidated that various mobile molecules, such as small proteins, peptides, RNAs, metabolites, and second messengers, transmit extracellular stimuli from sensing tissues to target organs. Plants have unique and complex mechanisms for accurately connecting various organs despite the lack of a nervous system. In this short review, we summarize the current knowledge of plant molecules involved in long-distance signaling for optimal growth and stress response, with special focus on mobile peptides.
