Photosynthesis is a high-rate redox metabolic process that is subjected to rapid changes in
input parameters, particularly light. Rapid transients of photon capture, electron fluxes, and …

When compared to other organisms, plants are atypical with respect to isoprenoid
biosynthesis: they utilize two distinct and separately compartmentalized pathways to build …

Annotation of protein-coding genes is very important in bioinformatics and biology and has a
decisive influence on many downstream analyses. Homology-based gene prediction …

Inter-organellar communication is vital for successful innate immune responses that confer
defense against pathogens. However, little is known about how chloroplasts, which are a …

In photosynthetic plant cells, chloroplasts act as factories of metabolic intermediates that
support plant growth. Chloroplast performance is highly influenced by environmental cues …

This review provides a comprehensive overview of the established and emerging roles that
organelles play in calcium signalling. The function of calcium as a secondary messenger in …

The most conspicuous function of plastids is the oxygenic photosynthesis of chloroplasts, yet
plastids are super-factories that produce a plethora of compounds that are indispensable for …

The major role played by chloroplasts during light harvesting, energy production, redox
homeostasis, and retrograde signalling processes has been extensively characterized …

In plants, jasmonate signaling regulates a wide range of processes from growth and
development to defense responses and thermotolerance. Jasmonates, such as jasmonic …

Selective autophagy has been extensively studied in various organisms, but knowledge
regarding its functions in plants, particularly in organelle turnover, is limited. We have …
