The term metabolome was coined in 1998, by analogy to genome, transcriptome and
proteome. The first research papers using the terms metabolomics, metabonomics …

Abiotic stresses rewire plant central metabolism to maintain metabolic and energy
homeostasis. Metabolites involved in the plant central metabolic network serve as a hub for …

When isotopes of carbon are fed to photosynthesizing leaves, metabolites of the Calvin–
Benson cycle (CBC) are rapidly labeled initially, but then the rate of labeling slows …

Photosynthesis-related pathways are regarded as a promising avenue for crop
improvement. Whilst empirical studies have shown that photosynthetic efficiency is higher in …

Rapidly changing light conditions can reduce carbon gain and productivity in field crops
because photosynthetic responses to light fluctuations are not instantaneous. Plant …

Introduction of a C4 photosynthetic mechanism into C3 crops offers an opportunity to
improve photosynthetic efficiency, biomass and yield in addition to potentially improving …

Abstract The Calvin-Benson cycle and its photorespiratory repair shunt are in charge of
nearly all biological CO2 fixation on Earth. They interact functionally and via shared carbon …

C4 and CAM photosynthesis have repeatedly evolved in plants over the past 30 million
years. Because both repurpose the same set of enzymes but differ in their spatial and …

Photorespiration is a dynamic process that is intimately linked to photosynthetic carbon
assimilation. There is a growing interest in understanding carbon assimilation during …

Despite intense research on the in vitro characterization of regulatory factors modulating the
alternative oxidase (AOX) pathway, the regulation of its activity in vivo is still not fully …
