Temperature-mediated changes in plant respiration (R) are now accepted as an important
component of the biosphere's response to global climate change. Here we discuss the …

When predicting the effects of climate change, global carbon circulation models that include
a positive feedback effect of climate warming on the carbon cycle often assume that (1) plant …

Plant mitochondria contain non-phosphorylating bypasses of the respiratory chain,
catalysed by the alternative oxidase (AOX) and alternative NADH dehydrogenases (NDH) …

The benefits of being able to process potatoes directly into chips or fries from cold storage (2
to 4 C) include less shrinkage, retention of dry matter, decreased disease loss, extended …

Although plant cell bioenergetics is strongly affected by abiotic stresses, mitochondrial
metabolism under stress is still largely unknown. Interestingly, plant mitochondria may …

Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are membrane proteins that mediate purine nucleotide-
sensitive free fatty acid-activated H+ flux through the inner mitochondrial membrane. After …

We have examined the expression of three alternative oxidase (aox) genes in two types of
maize mitochondrial mutants. Nonchromosomal stripe (NCS) mutants carry mitochondrial …

Flux is a key measure of the metabolic phenotype. Recently, complete (genome-scale)
metabolic network models have been established for Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) …

The so-called" alternative" electron transport proteins, the rotenone-insensitive NAD (P) H
dehydrogenases and the alternative oxidase, distinguish the inner membrane of plant …

The effects of short-and long-term changes in temperature on plant respiration (R) are
reviewed. We discuss the methods available for quantifying the short-and long-term …
