Abstract
Plants respond to stimuli such as light and phytohormones involved in the control of cell division, differentiation, nutrient transport and accumulation. Research is being conducted to identify signaling elements that couple the stimuli to physiological responses. We hypothesize that signaling cascades which convert extracellular stimuli to intracellular metabolic changes are highly conserved through evolution. In this work, we analysed molecules known to play an important role in animal signaling. The visual transduction cascade in retinal cells constitutes our model for the study of putative elements which may be involved in auxin and light desensitization within plant cells and tissues (Fig. 1).
