Outline of Research at the Start	Plants produce an array of compounds. Endogenously produced quinone-derived compounds in plants has been documented. Quinone compound plays a pivotal role in plant physiology, including plant immunity and stomatal physiology. This research aim to understand plant quinone signalling in in details.
