“…Glycolysis, a key and ubiquitous metabolic pathway by which the plant cell converts carbohydrates to the energetic coin ATP, is a central pathway to generate energy and metabolic intermediaries that sustain the biosynthesis of intra- and extra-cellular molecules required by the cell. Proteins of the glycolysis pathway such as phosphofructokinase, fructose-1,6-biphosphate aldolase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase, phosphoglycerate mutase, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate-independent phosphoglycerate mutase, phosphoglycerate kinase, enolase, and pyruvate decarboxylase were reported to be more abundant in the EC stage of African oil palm ( Silva et al, 2014 ), G. hirsutum ( Ge et al, 2017 ), maize ( Sun et al, 2013 ; Varhaníková et al, 2014 ; Ge et al, 2017 ), saffron ( Sharifi et al, 2012 ), Cyphomandra betacea ( Correia et al, 2012b ), Musa ( Kumaravel et al, 2017 ), Vitis vinifera ( Zhang et al, 2009 ), Larix principis-rupprechtii ( Beversdorf, 1987 ; Zhao et al, 2015a ), A. angustifolia ( dos Santos et al, 2016 ), P. nigra ( Klubicová et al, 2017 ), Theobroma cacao ( Niemenak et al, 2015 ), and sugarcane ( Heringer et al, 2017 ).…”
