| Popis: | Autophagy is a dynamic process that involves the recycling process of the degradation of intracellular materials. Over the past decade, our molecular and physiological understanding of plant autophagy has greatly been increased. Most essential autophagic machineries are conserved from yeast to plants. The roles that autophagy-related genes (ATGs) family play in the lifecycle of the Arabidopsis are proved to be similar to that in mammal. Autophagy is activated during certain stages of development, senescence or in response to starvation, or environmental stress in Arabidopsis. In the progression of autophagy, ATGs act as central signaling regulators and could develop sophisticated mechanisms to survive when plants are suffering unfavorable environments. It will facilitate further understanding of the molecular mechanisms of autophagy in plant. In this review, we will discuss recent advances in our understanding of autophagy in Arabidopsis, areas of controversy, and highlight potential future directions in autophagy research. |
