Abstract Trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P), the intermediate of trehalose biosynthesis, is an
essential signal metabolite in plants, linking growth and development to carbon status. The …

Stomatal pores facilitate gaseous exchange between the inner air spaces of the leaf and the
atmosphere. As gatekeepers that balance CO 2 entry for photosynthesis against …

possible. Low stomatal conductance (gs) poses a major constraint for improving …

Plant metabolism drives plant development and plant-environment responses, and data
readouts from this cellular level could provide insights in the underlying molecular …

Stomata control gaseous fluxes between the internal leaf air spaces and the external
atmosphere and, therefore, play a pivotal role in regulating CO2 uptake for photosynthesis …

Stomata are valves on the leaf surface controlling carbon dioxide (CO2) influx for
photosynthesis and water loss by transpiration. Thus, plants have to evolve elaborate …

Unlike C3 plants, Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants fix CO2 in the dark using
phospho enol pyruvate carboxylase (PPC; EC 4.1. 1.31). PPC combines phospho enol …

Guard cells on the leaf epidermis regulate stomatal opening for gas exchange between
plants and the atmosphere, allowing a balance between photosynthesis and transpiration …

The control of stomatal aperture involves reversible changes in the concentration of
osmolytes in guard cells. Sucrose has long been proposed to have an osmolytic role in …
