Abstract
Climate change is known to affect the stability of agricultural production all over the world. One of the most important problems associated with agriculture is uptake of water and nutrients by plants. Plant roots are vital organs, which are involved in water and nutrient acquisition and gravitropic responses. This review describes the pivotal role of auxin in root growth, gravitropic and abiotic stress responses, focusing on the regulatory role of CDPK superfamily members in stress tolerance.
