Abstract
With the need to respond to and integrate a multitude of external and internal stimuli, plant signaling is highly complex, exhibiting signaling component redundancy and high interconnectedness between individual pathways. We review here novel theoretical-experimental approaches in manipulating plant signaling towards the goal of a comprehensive understanding and targeted quantitative control of plant processes. We highlight approaches taken in the field of synthetic biology used in other systems and discuss their applicability in plants. Finally, we introduce existing tools for the quantitative analysis and monitoring of plant signaling and the integration of experimentally obtained quantitative data into mathematical models. Incorporating principles of synthetic biology into plant sciences more widely will lead this field forward in both fundamental and applied research.
