Summation

Trehalose 6 phosphate acts as a specific signal of sucrose status of the plant, and via a homeostatic mechanism controls the level of sucrose in plant cells, and consequently regulate starch biosynthesis and degradation. In growth and development, trehalose plays an important role in the transition from vegetative to reporoductive status. Other roles of trehalose varies from, interaction with SnRKs, and plant microbe interactions to stomatal conductance and abiotic stress tolerance.
