Decreasing fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphate aldolase activity reduces plant growth and tolerance to chilling stress in tomato seedlings

In northern China, low temperature is the most common abiotic stresses for tomato plants cultivated in solar-greenhouse in winter. We recently found that the expression and enzyme activity of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolases (FBAs) in tomato, which are important enzymes in the Calvin-Benson cycle (CBC), were significantly altered in tomato seedlings subjected to heat/cold stresses. In order to study the role of FBA in photosynthesis and in...
