Photorespiration begins with the oxygenation reaction catalyzed by Rubisco and is the
second highest metabolic flux in plants after photosynthesis. Although the core biochemical …

Photosynthesis is the basis of almost all life on earth and is the main component of crop
yield that contributes to the carbohydrate partitioning to the grains. Maintaining the …

Inorganic phosphorus (Pi) deficiency significantly impacts plant growth, development, and
photosynthetic efficiency. This study evaluated 206 rice accessions from a MiniCore …

Mutations in the photorespiration pathway display a lethal phenotype in atmospheric air,
which can be fully recovered by elevated CO2. An exception is that mutants of peroxisomal …

Developing C4 rice is one of the global research challenges for yield improvement. In the
optimal environment, the key difference between C3 and C4 plants with reference to …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 9 (MKK9) is an upstream activator of mitogen-
activated protein kinase 3 (MAPK3) and MAPK6 in planta. To investigate MKK9 roles in …

Bioengineering of photorespiratory bypasses is an effective strategy for improving plant
productivity by modulating photosynthesis. In previous work, two photorespiratory bypasses …

Light and temperature are two particularly important environmental cues for plant survival.
Carbon and nitrogen are two essential macronutrients required for plant growth and …

Photorespiration is an integral component of plant primary metabolism. Accordingly, it has
been often observed that impairing the photorespiratory flux negatively impacts other …

Photorespiration is an inevitable trait of all oxygenic phototrophs, being the only known
metabolic route that converts the inhibitory side-product of Rubisco's oxygenase activity 2 …
