The daily life of photosynthetic plants revolves around sugar production, transport, storage
and utilization, and the complex sugar metabolic and signaling networks integrate internal …

Plants, restricted by their environment, need to integrate a wide variety of stimuli with their
metabolic activity, growth and development. Sugars, generated by photosynthetic carbon …

Recent studies indicate that, in a manner similar to classical plant hormones, sugars can act
as signaling molecules that control gene expression and developmental processes in …

Sugars not only fuel cellular carbon and energy metabolism but also play pivotal roles as
signaling molecules. The experimental amenability of yeast as a unicellular model system …

Sugars act as potent signaling molecules in plants. Several sugar sensors, including the
highly studied glucose sensor HEXOKINASE1 (HXK1), have been identified or proposed …

Energy acts as a primary prerequisite for plant growth like all the other organisms. Soluble
sugars function in providing enough supply of nutrients which further helps in building …

Nutrients are vital to life through intertwined sensing, signaling, and metabolic processes.
Emerging research focuses on how distinct nutrient signaling networks integrate and …

Arabidopsis hexokinase1 (HXK1) is a glucose sensor that integrates nutrient and hormone
signals to govern gene expression and plant growth in response to environmental cues …

Sugars are ubiquitous and critical components for general metabolism. These primary
products from photosynthesis affect most, if not all, processes in plant cells by providing …

Plant growth and development has to be continuously adjusted to the available resources.
Their optimization requires the integration of signals conveying the plant metabolic status, its …
