The cold responsive mechanism of the paper mulberry: decreased photosynthesis capacity and increased starch accumulation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:An efficient signal transduction system allows a bacterium to sense environmental cues and then to respond positively or negatively to those signals; this process is referred to as taxis. In addition to external cues, the internal metabolic state of any bacterium plays a major role in determining its ability...
