Photorespiration is frequently considered a wasteful and inefficient process. However,
mutant analysis demonstrated that photorespiration is essential for recycling of 2 …

Heterosis or hybrid vigor is widespread in plants and animals. Although the molecular basis
for heterosis has been extensively studied, metabolic and proteomic contributions to …

C4 plants frequently experience high light and high temperature conditions in the field,
which reduce growth and yield. However, the mechanisms underlying these stress …

Photorespiration is one of the major carbon metabolism pathways in oxygen-producing
photosynthetic organisms. This pathway recycles 2-phosphoglycolate (2-PG), a toxic …

The genes coding for the core metabolic enzymes of the photorespiratory pathway that
allows plants with C3-type photosynthesis to survive in an oxygen-rich atmosphere, have …

H 2 O 2, which is continually produced by aerobic metabolism, is a cytotoxic molecule when
in high levels. However, low levels can act as a signaling molecule able to regulate the …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) function as key signaling molecules to inhibit stomatal
opening and promote stomatal closure in response to diverse environmental stresses …

Plant central carbon metabolism comprises several important metabolic pathways acting
together to support plant growth and yield establishment. Despite the emergence of 13 C …

Ongoing human-induced changes in the composition of the atmosphere continue to
stimulate interest in the effects of high CO 2 on plants, but its potential impact on inducible …
