Algal lipid metabolism fascinates both scientists and entrepreneurs due to the large diversity
of fatty acyl structures that algae produce. Algae have therefore long been studied as …

Several recent studies have shown that citric acid/citrate (CA) can confer abiotic stress
tolerance to plants. Exogenous CA application leads to improved growth and yield in crop …

Flavonoids are a signature class of secondary metabolites formed from a relatively simple
collection of scaffolds. They are extensively decorated by chemical reactions including …

Rhizosphere is a crucial area in comprehending the interaction between plants and
microorganisms in constructed wetlands (CWs). However, influence of photoperiod, a key …

Flavonoids are representative plant secondary products. In the model plant Arabidopsis
thaliana, at least 54 flavonoid molecules (35 flavonols, 11 anthocyanins and 8 …

The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is one of the iconic pathways in metabolism. The cycle is
commonly thought of in terms of energy metabolism, being responsible for the oxidation of …

Histone lysine acetylation is well known for being important in the epigenetic regulation of
gene expression in eukaryotic cells. Recent studies have uncovered a plethora of acetylated …

Triacylglycerols (TAGs) constitute a highly efficient form of energy storage. In seeds of
angiosperms, they can act as a reserve of carbon and energy allowing to fuel post …

Organic acids are present in all plants, supporting numerous and varied facets of cellular
metabolism. The type of organic acid found, and the levels to which they accumulate are …

The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a crucial component of respiratory metabolism in both
photosynthetic and heterotrophic plant organs. All of the major genes of the tomato TCA …
