The survival of plants hinges on their ability to perceive various environmental stimuli and translate them into appropriate biochemical responses. Phospholipids, a class of membrane lipid compounds that are asymmetrically distributed within plant cells, stand out among signal transmitters for their diversity of mechanisms by which they modulate stress and developmental processes. By modifying the chemo-physical properties of the plasma membrane (PM) as well as vesicle trafficking, phospholipids contribute to changes in the protein membrane landscape, and hence, signaling responses. In this article, we review the distinct signaling mechanisms phospholipids are involved in, with a special focus on the nuclear role of these compounds. Additionally, we summarize exemplary developmental processes greatly influenced by phospholipids.

植物的生存取决于它们感知各种环境刺激并将其转化为适当的生化反应的能力。磷脂是一类不对称分布在植物细胞内的膜脂化合物，因其调节压力和发育过程的机制多样性而在信号传递剂中脱颖而出。通过修饰质膜（PM）的化学物理特性以及囊泡运输，磷脂有助于蛋白质膜景观的变化，从而发出信号响应。在本文中，我们综述了磷脂所涉及的不同信号传导机制，并特别关注了这些化合物的核作用。另外，我们总结了受磷脂影响很大的示例性发育过程。
