Under the natural environment, nutrient signals interact with phytohormones to coordinate
and reprogram plant growth and survival. Sugars are important molecules that control …

Nutrient signalling integrates and coordinates gene expression, metabolism and growth.
However, its primary molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood in plants and …

Highlights•Emerging sugar signals are discussed.•Direct sugar sensing and signaling is
triggered via sugar-binding sensors.•Sugar-derived metabolites modulate energy sensors …

Plant responses to atmospheric carbon dioxide will be of great concern in the future, as
carbon dioxide concentrations ([CO 2]) are predicted to continue to rise. Elevated [CO 2] …

Abstract WRINKLED1 (WRI1), the transcriptional activator of fatty acid synthesis, was
recently identified as a target of KIN10, a catalytic α-subunit of the SUCROSE-NON …

Metabolic changes occurring in ripe or senescent fruits during postharvest storage lead to a
general deterioration in quality attributes, including decreased flavor and 'off …

For maintenance of cellular homeostasis, the actions of growth-promoting hormones must
be attenuated when nutrient and energy become limiting. The molecular mechanisms that …

The coordinated metabolism of carbon and nitrogen is essential for optimal plant growth and
development. Nitrate is an important molecular signal for plant adaptation to a changing …

Both sorbitol and sucrose are synthesized in source leaves and transported to fruit for
supporting fruit growth in tree fruit species of the Rosaceae family. In apple (Malus …
