Coordinated Regulation of Central Carbon Metabolism in Pyroligneous Acid-Treated Tomato Plants under Aluminum Stress.

ABSTRACT: Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major threat to global crop production in acidic soils, which can be mitigated by natural substances such as pyroligneous acid (PA). However, the effect of PA in regulating plant central carbon metabolism (CCM) under Al stress is unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of varying PA concentrations (0, 0.25 and 1% PA/ddH₂O (v/v)) on intermediate metabolites involved in CCM in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L., 'Scotia') seedlings under varying Al concentrations (0, 1 and 4 mM AlCl₃). A total of 48 differentially expressed metabolites of CCM were identified in the leaves of both control and PA-treated plants under Al stress. Calvin-Benson cycle (CBC) and pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) metabolites were considera
