Understanding the rerouting of metabolic reaction fluxes upon perturbations has the potential to link changes in molecular state of a cellular system to alteration of growth. Yet, differential flux profiling on a genome-scale level remains one of the biggest challenges in systems biology. This is particularly relevant in plants, for which fluxes in autotrophic growth necessitate time-consuming instationary labeling experiments and costly computations, feasible for small-scale networks.
