Plants use sugars as signaling molecules and possess mechanisms to detect and respond
to changes in sugar availability, ranging from the level of secondary signaling molecules to …

Plants are sessile photo-autotrophic organisms continuously exposed to a variety of
environmental stresses. Monitoring the sugar level and energy status is essential, since this …

The effects of manipulating nutrient supply on plant growth and development have long
been known. However, it is only recently that these effects have been understood to consist …

▪ Abstract Plant gene responses to changing carbohydrate status can vary markedly. Some
genes are induced, some are repressed, and others are minimally affected. As in …

To survive and sustain growth, sessile plants have developed sophisticated internal
signalling networks that respond to various external and internal cues. Despite the central …

In plants, sugars are required to sustain growth and regulate gene expression. A large set of
genes are either up-or down-regulated by sugars; however, whether there is a common …

Sugars have signaling roles in a wide variety of developmental processes in plants. To
elucidate the regulatory components that constitute the glucose signaling network governing …

The production of carbohydrates via photosynthesis is the most fundamental activity in plant
life. Carbohydrate synthesis, transport, utilization, and storage are dynamic processes …

Sucrose (Suc) is the major end product of photosynthesis in mesophyll cells of most vascular
plants. It is loaded into phloem of mature leaves for long‐distance translocation to non …

The molecular details of sugar sensing and sugar-mediated signal transduction pathways
are unclear but recent results suggest that hexokinase functions as an important plant sugar …
