Signalling and regulation of plant development by carbon/nitrogen balance
Abstract The two most abundant macronutrients in plant cells are carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). Coordination of their cellular metabolism is a fundamental factor in guaranteeing the optimal growth and development of plants. N availability and assimilation profoundly affect plant gene expression and modulate root and stem architecture, thus affecting ...

From Sweetness to Mouthfeel: A Review on Overcoming Sensory Barriers in Sugar‐Free Beverages
Background Over recent decades, considerable research has focused on understanding sweet taste mechanisms and developing new noncarbohydrate sweeteners due to rising noncommunicable diseases. New regulations limiting high sugar levels in food and beverages have driven innovation towards reduced‐sugar and sugar‐free products, often using noncarbohydrate
