Trehalose 6?phosphate (T6P) and auxin biosynthesis.

Caption

Upper panel: The wrinkled seed phenotype and NMR* images of intact embryos with reduced T6P content (left) versus wild type (right). Relaxation time (T2) values are color?coded to visualize gradient within the embryo tissues. The miniature 3D-scheme indicates the virtual cross?section plane used for visualization of cotyledons. Lower panel: A simplified model of the T6P-auxin signaling pathway regulating embryo maturation in pea; details are further explained in the manuscript.
