VviRafS5 Is a Raffinose Synthase Involved in Cold Acclimation in Grapevine Woody Tissues
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The accumulation of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) is a hallmark of plant response to different abiotic stresses, including cold. The synthesis of galactinol, by galactinol synthases (GolS), and raffinose, by raffinose synthases (RafS), are ...

Inorganic nitrogen availability alters Eucalyptus grandis receptivity to the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus albus but not symbiotic nitrogen transfer. [PDF]
, 2020 Forest trees are able to thrive in nutrient-poor soils in part because they obtain growth-limiting nutrients, especially nitrogen (N), through mutualistic symbiosis with ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Soybean employs its circadian clock, governed by GmCCA1, to rhythmically defend against soybean cyst nematodes. The pathogen retaliates by secreting the effector Hg4E02, which hijacks the clock to suppress defense and co‐opt the host's translation machinery for nutrient acquisition.

Utilization of exogenous saccharides by protocorms of two terrestrial orchids
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2017 Orchid protocorms are completely mycoheterotrophic structures. Although saccharides are proposed as the main energy and carbon (C) sources provided by fungi, there is only limited knowledge on their effects.

Important roles of drought-and cold-inducible genes for galactinol synthase in stress tolerance in arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2002 Raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFO), raffinose and stachyose, accumulating during seed development are thought to play some roles in desiccation tolerance of seeds.
