Multicellular glandular trichomes are epidermal outgrowths characterized by the presence of
a head made of cells that have the ability to secrete or store large quantities of specialized …

Photorespiratory metabolism is essential for plants to maintain functional photosynthesis in
an oxygen‐containing environment. Because the oxygenation reaction of Rubisco is …

Glandular trichomes are epidermal outgrowths that are the site of biosynthesis and storage
of large quantities of specialized metabolites. Besides their role in the protection of plants …

Engineering improved Rubisco for the enhancement of photosynthesis is challenged by the
alternate locations of the chloroplast rbcL gene and nuclear RbcS genes. Here we develop …

Photosynthetic rate at the present atmospheric condition is limited by the CO 2-fixing
enzyme ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) because of its …

Rising human population, along with the reduction in arable land and the impacts of global
change, sets out the need for continuously improving agricultural resource use efficiency …

Photosynthesis is a process that uses solar energy to fix CO2 in the air and converts it into
sugar, and ultimately powers almost all life activities on the earth. C3 photosynthesis is the …

The metabolic plasticity of tobacco leaves has been demonstrated via the generation of
transgenic plants that can accumulate over 30% dry weight as triacylglycerols. In …

In many plant species, expression of the nuclear encoded Rubisco small subunit (SSu)
varies with environmental changes, but the functional role of any changes in expression …

Under potassium (K) deficiency photosynthetic carboxylation capacities are limited, affecting
the photosynthetic rate of plants. However, it is not clear how ionic K within plants regulates …
