Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and upstream mitogen-activated protein kinases kinases (MAPKKs) are versatile transducers of signals in plants. MAPKs can be activated by multiple stimuli such as abiotic and abiotic stress factors, they are involved also in hormonal responses, cell cycle regulation and development (Šamajová et al., 2013; Smékalová et al., 2014). However, cellular localization, molecular interactions and the spatiotemporal dynamics of plant MAPKs during their stress-induced or developmentally-related activations are still not fully understood (Komis et al., 2018). With examples describing dynamic roles of MPK3, MPK4 and MPK6 in Arabidopsis, as well as SIMK in alfalfa, we will present interlinked involvement of MAPK signalling in the regulation of plant developmental processes and in plant responses to some abiotic stress factors.
