Highlights:• The review explores the intricate metabolic and regulatory networks underlying lipid accumulation in non-seed tissues, emphasizing carbon/nitrogen partitioning, redox regulate on, and their impact on plant stress tolerance and productivity.• Key future research directions are outlined, including integrative multi-omics approaches, environmental stress adaptation, carbon-nitrogen interactions, and extensive field trials.• The potential of alternative crop species and systems is discussed, highlighting opportunities to broaden the applications of these technologies for sustainable agriculture and bioenergy production.
Keywords: C/N partitioning, non-seed lipid storage, redox regulation, sustainable agriculture, bioenergy, abiotic stress
