Abstract:

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade is an important pathway of signal transduction in plants to response the changes from external environment. MAPK cascade is involved in the process of low-temperature signal transduction and plays a dominant role in the amplification and transmission of signals. Currently, different MAPKs are discovered to be involved in low-temperature stress in plants. Research progress of MAPK was discussed in this article. Bioinformatic methods were also applied to predict relative functions of LeMAPKs in tomato. Therefore, this article provided the theoretical basis for further investigation on MAPK cascade mechanisms of signal transduction at low temperature.

Key words: plant, low-temperature, stress, MAPK
