Sugar metabolism drives shoot branching by repressing BRC1 through miR319 –targeted TCP4 in Rosa

Abstract The coupling between sugar availability and shoot branching is well established, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, using genome-wide profiling, we characterized the sugar signalling pathways by identifying 10 microRNAs (miRNAs) repress...

The crosstalk of autophagy and metabolism in plants

Autophagy in plants promotes cellular longevity and nutrient recycling by degrading unwanted organelles and damaged cytoplasmic components. This process is essential for plant stress tolerance and nutrient management. In all plant organs, autophagy plays a critical role in mainta...
