Leaf specific overexpression of a mitochondrially-targeted glutamine synthetase in tomato increased assimilate export resulting in earlier fruiting and elevated yield

J. G. Vallarino, S. Shameer, Y. Zhang, R. G. Ratcliffe, L. J. Sweetlove, A. R. Fernie

This study shows that overexpressing mitochondrial-targeted glutamine synthetase in tomato leaves increases assimilate export, leading to earlier flowering and higher yield.

CAM emerges in a leaf metabolic model under water-saving constraints in different environments

N. Toepfer, T. Braam, S. Shameer, R. G. Ratcliffe, L. J. Sweetlove

The paper models leaf metabolism under water-saving constraints and shows that vacuolar storage capacity and specific metabolic pathways influence the emergence of CAM and its efficiency in different environments.

Predicting metabolism during growth by osmotic cell expansion

S. Shameer, J. G. Vallarino, A. R. Fernie, R. G. Ratcliffe, L. J. Sweetlove

This study introduces GrOE-FBA to model metabolism during cell expansion, showing similar energetic costs for metabolite biosynthesis in dividing and expanding cells and revealing transitory starch's role in tomato fruit development.
