Defense against stress and active suppression of growth are two complementary strategies
by which plants respond to adverse environments. Although beneficial for plant survival …

Trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P) has a dual function as a signal and homeostatic regulator of
sucrose levels in plants. In source leaves, Tre6P regulates the production of sucrose to …

Highlights•bZIPs are evolutionarily conserved eukaryotic transcription factors.•The
Arabidopsis bZIP family consists of 78 members classified into 13 groups.•bZIPs perform a …

Soil flooding creates composite and complex stress in plants known as either submergence
or waterlogging stress depending on the depth of the water table. In nature, these stresses …

Abstract Trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P), the intermediate of trehalose biosynthesis, is an
essential signal metabolite in plants, linking growth and development to carbon status. The …

Under the natural environment, nutrient signals interact with phytohormones to coordinate
and reprogram plant growth and survival. Sugars are important molecules that control …

Abstract Tre6P (trehalose-6-phosphate) mediates sensing of carbon availability to maintain
sugar homeostasis in plants, which underpins crop yield and resilience. However, how …

Sugars have a central regulatory function in steering plant growth. This review focuses on
information presented in the past 2 years on key players in sugar-mediated plant growth …

Trehalose is a quantitatively important compatible solute and stress protectant in many
organisms, including green algae and primitive plants. These functions have largely been …

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 …
