“…This was demonstrated in Phaseolus vulgaris (Rychter and Mikulska, 1990; Rychter et al, 1992), Catharanthus roseus (Hoefnagels et al, 1993), Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Weger and Dasgupta, 1993), Lupinus albus (Florez-Sarasa et al, 2014), and tobacco cell cultures (Parsons et al, 1999). The electron flow directed to the AOX pathway allows conserving the intercellular P pool (Theodorou et al, 1991; Parsons et al, 1999; Juszczuk et al, 2001; Juszczuk and Rychter, 2003; Day et al, 2004) but also allows NADH oxidation, produced during citrate synthesis, to maintain continuation of TCA cycle reactions (Vanlerberghe and McIntosh, 1996; Shane et al, 2004; Gupta et al, 2012; Florez-Sarasa et al, 2014). Moreover, under P limitation, AOX activity in roots seems positively correlated with synthesis and release of carboxylates (citrate and malate, López-Bucio et al, 2000; Veneklaas et al, 2003; Del-Saz et al, 2018).…”
