The Role of Trehalose 6-Phosphate in Crop Yield and Resilience

Abstract: One sentence summary: T6P can be targeted through genetic and chemical methods for crop yield 10 improvements in different environments through the effect of T6P on carbon allocation and 11 biosynthetic pathways 12Significant increases in global food security require improving crop yields in favourable and 13 poor conditions alike. However, it is challenging to increase both the crop yield potential and yield 14 resilience simultaneously, since the mechanisms that determine productivity and stress tolerance ar… Show more

“…Trehalose was first isolated from ryegrass by Wiggers in the late nineteenth century and was later found in bacteria, algae, yeast, lower plants, insects, and other invertebrates [8]. The amount of trehalose present in plants is extremely low, and excessive accumulation of trehalose can affect the metabolism of normal carbohydrates in plants and even inhibit their growth [9][10][11]. Trehalose produces a marked effect primarily in the form of signaling molecules under stress conditions [12].…”

“…On the other hand, the role of trehalose as source of energy is quite elusive. It is known that the flux through the trehalose pathway is more than a 1.000-fold lower than the sucrose pathway where uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPglucose) is released from sucrose to support main aspects of growth, including cell wall biosynthesis (Paul et al, 2018).…”

“…Trehalose (α-d-glucopyranosyl-1,1-α-d-glucopyranoside) works as an osmolyte, storage reserve, transport sugar, and stress protectant [50] [51]; and it is also involved in growth and development metabolism [52] with clear links to abscisic acid and auxin signaling [53]. Increased levels of trehalose have been observed in response to osmotic stress [54] as well as to dehydration stress tolerance [55] [54]. Most plants accumulate substantial starch reserves in their leaves to provide carbon and energy for maintenance and growth [56] [57].…”
