TOR as hub integrating signaling and metabolism in Arabidopsis

This reasoning chain integrates evidence that the TOR kinase functions as a central regulatory node in Arabidopsis, coordinating plant growth, metabolism, and environmental responses through interaction with proteins such as ROP2 GTPase and via links to upstream and downstream pathways including nutrient signaling and root development.
