Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) belongs to the class of defense-related proteins. It is one of the largest protein family with roles ranging from growth and development to stress response. They are involved in every aspect of the plant life cycle, such as growth and development, reproduction and immunity. Development of high throughput sequencing technology has favoured the identification and characterization of numerous gene families in plants in the recent years. Researchers have identified and characterized numerous RLK sub-families in model plant species and agro-economically important crop plants like rice, wheat, sorghum, tomato etc.

Plant Receptor-like Kinases is a compilation of the latest research in this important class of development and defense response proteins. It provides the foundational knowledge of the classification of RLKs, their mechanism of action and their roles in the plant life cycle, as well as the most up-to-date advances in the applications of RLKs. This is an essential read to researchers interested in plant signaling and plant genomics.
