Signals, Sensing, and Plant Primary Metabolism

Abstract

The Third Symposium Signals, Sensing and Plant Primary Metabolism, organized by the DFG Sonderforschungsbereich 429 (‘‘Molecular Physiology, Energetics, and Regulation of Primary Metabolism in Plants’’) was held on the beautiful premises of the World Heritage Site, Park Sanssouci, Potsdam, Germany, from April 26th to 29th 2006. The program covered regulatory aspects of plant primary metabolism and fascinated attendees by integrating physiological, structural, and biophysical data.
