Compared to animal cells, K+ is more abundantly present in plant cells. Overall performance of the plant, and operation of metabolic machinery depends upon intracellular K+ homeostasis (K+ uptake and efflux) via K+ channels and transporters acting as mediators of cellular responses during plant development. Unlike animals, plants lack sodium/K+ exchangers; plant cells have developed unique transport systems for K+ accumulation and release. In Arabidopsis thaliana, 71 K+ channels and transporters have been identified and categorized into six families. Plant adaptive responses to several abiotic and biotic stresses are mediated by regulation of intracellular K+ homeostasis. In this report, we highlight the role of K+ in abiotic and biotic stresses, features of channels and transporters responsible for its homeostasis along with its evolutionary relationship, perception and sensing mechanisms, and K+ deficiency triggering different signaling cascades. Overall, this book covers the role of K+ in plants would be significantly helpful to research, academic community as well as students to understand the one of the major attributes of plant biology. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Plant Science,$x2192-1229 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aBotanical chemistry 606 $aPlant diseases 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24051 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aPlant Pathology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24035 606 $aPotassi$2thub 606 $aPlantes$2thub 606 $aFitoquímica$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aBotanical chemistry. 615 0$aPlant diseases. 615 14$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aPlant Pathology. 615 7$aPotassi 615 7$aPlantes 615 7$aFitoquímica 676 $a581.13342 700 $aPandey$b Girdhar K$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058747 702 $aMahiwal$b Swati$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910409682503321 996 $aRole of Potassium in Plants$92538467 997 $aUNINA
