Plant pathway

Plant pathways are the complex series of chemical reactions and processes that occur within plants to support growth, development, and survival. They involve the transport of nutrients and water, photosynthesis (converting sunlight into energy), respiration (releasing energy from food), and the synthesis of essential compounds like sugars, proteins, and oils. These pathways are regulated by plant genes and signals, ensuring the plant responds appropriately to environmental changes. Understanding plant pathways helps scientists improve crop yields, develop pest resistance, and adapt plants to different climates.
