“…Increases in shoot-derived carbohydrates have been observed in many plant species in response to low P availability (Foyer and Spencer, 1986;Cakmak et al, 1994;Ciereszko et al, 1996;Ciereszko and Barbachowska, 2000;Morcuende et al, 2007;Mü ller et al, 2007;Lundmark et al, 2010). Increased leaf Suc concentrations lead indirectly to (1) a reduction in photosynthesis through decreased expression of genes encoding many photosystem subunits and small subunits of Rubisco (Lloyd and Zakhleniuk, 2004;Amtmann et al, 2006;Hermans et al, 2006;Rook et al, 2006;Morcuende et al, 2007), (2) an increase in leaf sulfolipid and galactolipid concentrations through the up-regulation of genes involved in their biosynthesis (Dörmann and Benning, 2002;Benning and Ohta, 2005;Gaude et al, 2008), and (3) the production of anthocyanins through a transcriptional cascade involving the transcription factors TTG1-TT8/EGL3-PAP1/PAP2 (Lloyd and Zakhleniuk, 2004;Teng et al, 2005;Amtmann et al, 2006;Solfanelli et al, 2006).…”
