Sugar metabolism plays an essential role in plant male reproduction. Defects in sugar
metabolism during anther and pollen development often result in genic male sterility (GMS) …

Nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are two key molecules in plant cells that
participate, directly or indirectly, as regulators of protein functions through derived post …

CO2 release in the light (RL) and its presumed source, oxidative pentose phosphate
pathways, were found to be insensitive to CO2 concentration. The oxidative pentose …

Unfavourable conditions, such as prolonged drought and high salinity, pose a threat to the
survival and agricultural yield of plants. The phytohormone ABA plays a key role in the …

We investigated the basis for better performance of transgenic Nicotiana tabacum plants
with G6PDH‐isoenzyme replacement in the cytosol (Xanthi:: cP2:: cytRNAi, Scharte et al …

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is the rate-limiting enzyme of the oxidative pentose-
phosphate pathway (OPPP). The OPPP mainly provides NADPH and sugar-phosphate …

Coordination between the sporophytic tissue and the gametic pollen within anthers is tightly
controlled to achieve the optimal pollen fitness. Glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate …

Protein cysteines (Cys) undergo a multitude of different reactive oxygen species (ROS),
reactive sulfur species (RSS), and/or reactive nitrogen species (RNS)-derived modifications …

Abstract Low temperatures (0–10° C) represent a major physiological stress for plants,
negatively affecting both their growth rates and overall growth. Cold stress may induce a …

The pathway of starch synthesis in guard cells (GCs), despite the crucial role starch plays in
stomatal movements, is not well understood. Here, we characterized starch dynamics in GCs …
