| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2025 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Myo-inositol serves as a key metabolite that contributes to the numerous biosynthetic pathways in plants. The enzyme myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX) converts myo-inositol into D-glucuronic acid, a precursor to pectin and hemicellulose components of the plant cell wall. Previously, the role of myo-inositol pathway in ascorbic acid biosynthesis and its interactions with crucial biosynthetic networks such as phytic acid biosynthesis have been discussed. Nowadays, focus is increasing on enhancing the ascorbic acid content, not just to improve the nutritional quality but also to produce crops that can withstand environmental stress. The interplay between MIOX pathway, ascorbic acid, phytic acid and cell wall sugars production significantly affect the plant growth and development. Therefore, a better understanding of the interconnection between these plant pathways is crucial for the development of crop plants without any negative developmental effects. The current study addresses the knowledge gaps and present a particular perspective on the relation of MIOX pathway with cell wall, phytic acid and ascorbic acid biosynthesis pathways in plants. Additionally, it also provides information on MIOX pathway genes that have shown potential in providing tolerance to abiotic stresses (such as heat, cold, drought and salt) in plants |
