Abstract
GRAS proteins play crucial roles in plant growth and development [ 1 ]. Scarecrow-like protein 26 (SCL26, also known as AT4G08250) from Arabidopsis belongs to the GRAS family of plant specific transcription factors. Nodulation signaling pathway 2 (NSP2) from Medicago is a homologue required for rhizobial Nod factor signalling. NSP2 functions downstream of Nod-factor-induced calcium spiking and a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase [ 2 , 3 ].
