Abstract
Summary Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolisms are two major metabolic pathways which have been intensively studied in plants. Both N and C metabolisms are tightly linked in numerous plant biochemical pathways. Therefore the C to N ratio has to be carefully regulated to ensure proper functioning of the huge metabolic network. In order to maintain a viable C/N status under a large range of growth conditions plants have evolved complex mechanisms to regulate the delicate network of these two major assimilatory pathways. C and N metabolisms are both highly regulated. We will present the current knowledge on the regulation of N and C metabolisms by sugars and N metabolites. Players involved in these regulatory processes are just starting to be uncovered and possible signaling molecules involved in these regulations as well as known or potential candidate regulatory genes willbe discussed.
