Phospholipid membrane component, precursor of inositol phosphates.

Phosphatidylinositol is a phosphoglyceride, containing inositol as a cyclohexanol head group. The phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway is also called as double signaling pathway as it generates two secondary messengers. It is associated with a number of physiological processes in plants. This includes the development of pollen and vascular organs, root and root hair growth, hormone response and stress tolerance.
