Highlights
Sugars act as signaling molecules to control plant growth and development through the regulation of gene expression and metabolic processes.
Direct and indirect sugar responses are accompanied by changes in the chromatin landscape.
Epigenetic modifications, including histone acetylation and deacetylation, histone methylation and demethylation, and DNA methylation, intertwine to enrich the sugar regulatory network.
Plants adapt to variable environments through flexible and diverse epigenetic mechanisms that mediate the perception and transduction of sugar signals.
Plants are one of six big groups (kingdoms) of living things. They are autotrophic eukaryotes, which means they have complex cells, and make their own food. Usually they cannot move (not counting growth). Plants include familiar types such as trees, herbs, bushes, grasses, vines, ferns, mosses, and green algae.
Importance of plant;
Plants are really important for the planet and for all living things. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen from their leaves, which humans and other animals need to breathe. Living things need plants to live - they eat them and live in them. Plants help to clean water too.
