ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a family of GluR in plants, including ionotropic (iGluR), metabotropic (mGluR) and other glutamate-like plant receptors. The plant GluRs of the invention may function as signal transducers involved in the regulation of plant growth. The invention also relates to the identification of compounds that modulate the activity of the plant GluR, and the use of such compounds as plant growth regulators, including herbicides.
