The magic 'hammer' of TOR: the multiple faces of a single pathway in the metabolic regulation of plant growth and development.

abstract：:Plants have evolved highly complex sensory mechanisms to monitor their surroundings and adapt their growth and development to the prevailing environmental conditions. The integration of information from multiple environmental cues enables the co-ordination of development with favourable seasonal conditions and, ultima...
