This review summarizes knowledge of alternative oxidase, a mitochondrial electron
transport chain component that lowers the ATP yield of plant respiration. Analysis of mutant …

Contents Summary 670 I. Introduction 671 II. Principle 1–Plant respiration performs three
distinct functions 673 III. Principle 2–Metabolic pathway flexibility underlies plant respiratory …

The alternative pathway of mitochondrial electron transport, which terminates in the
alternative oxidase (AOX), uncouples oxidation of substrate from mitochondrial ATP …

Proline (Pro) catabolism and reactive oxygen species production have been linked in
mammals and Caenorhabditis elegans, while increases in leaf respiration rate follow Pro …

Plant mitochondria are indispensable for plant metabolism and are tightly integrated into
cellular homeostasis. This review provides an update on the latest research concerning the …

The majority of the pyruvate inside plant mitochondria is either transported into the matrix
from the cytosol via the mitochondria pyruvate carrier (MPC) or synthesized in the matrix by …

The inhibitory effect of extracellular DNA (exDNA) on the growth of conspecific individuals
was demonstrated in different kingdoms. In plants, the inhibition has been observed on root …

Cys-based redox regulation was long regarded a major adjustment mechanism of
photosynthesis and metabolism in plants, but in the recent years, its scope has broadened to …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) release seed dormancy through an unknown mechanism.
We used different seed dormancy‐breaking treatments to decipher the dynamics and …

Mitochondria function as hubs of plant metabolism. Oxidative phosphorylation produces
ATP, but it is also a central high-capacity electron sink required by many metabolic pathways …
