Metabolic Adaptations of Plant Respiration to Nutritional Phosphate Deprivation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Plants respond adaptively to orthophosphate (Pi) deprivation through the induction of alternative pathways of glycolysis and mitochondrial electron transport. These respiratory bypasses allow respiration to proceed in Pi-deficient plant cells because they negate the necessity for adenylates and Pi, both pools of which are severely depressed following nutritional Pi starvation.

Plant Response to Stress: Biochemical Adaptations to Phosphate Deficiency
Phosphate (Pi) is an essential macronutrient that plays a central role in virtually all metabolic processes in plants, including photosynthesis and respiration. Despite its importance, Pi is one of the least available nutrients in many ecosystems, and is a frequent limiting factor for plant productivity. Although plentiful in the earth’s crust, soil Pi often exists in insoluble mineral forms th...
متن کاملPhosphate: the Silent Challenge
Phosphorus (P) is one of the most vital elements for all living organisms which acts as aconstituent of essential biomolecules such as nucleic acids, phospholipids, and phosphosugars,and as a major contributor to almost all metabolic reactions including photosynthesis,respiration, and energy delivery. It is one of the most needed nutrients for plant growth anddevelopment. Despite high levels of...
متن کاملMetabolic adaptations to arsenic-induced oxidative stress in Isatis cappadocica. Naser Karimi* and Zahra Souri
Arsenic is considered as one of the most important environmental contaminant elements. Some plant species can grow in arsenic contaminated soils and they are able to reduce arsenic toxicity. In this study, a hydroponic experiment was conducted on Isatis cappadocica, a newly-discovered As hyperaccumulator. Accordingly, we conducted this experiment to compare the interaction of effect of arsenic ...

Impaired mitochondrial function often results in excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is involved in the etiology of many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Moderate levels of mitochondrial ROS, however, can protect against chronic disease by inducing upregulation of mitochondrial capacity and endogenous an...
متن کاملTranscript profiling of Zea mays roots reveals gene responses to phosphate deficiency at the plant- and species-specific levels.
Maize (Zea mays) is the most widely cultivated crop around the world; however, it is commonly affected by phosphate (Pi) deficiency in many regions, particularly in acid and alkaline soils of developing countries. To cope with Pi deficiency, plants have evolved a large number of developmental and biochemical adaptations; however, for maize, the underlying molecular basis of these responses is s...
