“…The pitchers have slippery interior surfaces, and enzymes within pitchers digest prey to access resources that otherwise are scarce in the low nutrient soils where these species grow. Once the pitchers open, food webs of insects, arachnids, protozoa, rotifers, bacteria, and fungi form in the water-filled pools of many pitcher plant species [49].…”

“…organic acids), medium-term water storage can be achieved by forming external water reservoirs (phytotelmata) and water can also be stored for the longer term due to special non-green and non-photosynthetical water storage tissues, i.e. hydrenchymas (L€ uttge 2004;Frank 2005).…”

Exploration of Sweet Immunity to Enhance Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants: Lessons from CAM

2016

The concept of 'sweet immunity' or 'sugar-enhanced defence' is based on the accumulating evidence that sweet, endogenous saccharides might act as signalling molecules that are activated by exposure to stress and hence initiate signal amplification and lead to more rapid and robust activation of defence, immunity and stress tolerance. Sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose have acquired important regulatory functions in evolution and are becoming more and more recognized as signalling molecules in plants controlling gene expression related to plant metabolism, stress resistance and development. This offers opportunities for 'sweet priming', defined as a physiological process that prepares plants for a faster and/or stronger defence response to future stress conditions, but does not impose the costs associated with full implementation of an induced defence
