Abstract The expansion of Pleioblastus amarus into tea plantations introduces environmental heterogeneity, significantly influencing the growth and quality bamboo shoots. This study examined effects on appearance, nutrition, palatability shoots, utilizing partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to identify key factors. Results revealed that increased shoot diameter, length, fresh weight, enhancing overall size edibility, particularly in tea-bamboo mixed forest center zone (TBC), where appearance peaked. Nutritional analysis substantial increases protein, fat, starch, vitamin C content after expansion, along with improvements amino acid score ( AAS ), essential index EAAI nutritional NI indicating elevated value. However, despite rise soluble sugars flavor-enhancing acids, higher levels total oxalic acid, tannins, cellulose diminished palatability, notably TBC site. PLS-SEM further indicated while positively influenced soil factors predominantly drove these changes concurrently detracted from palatability. These findings provide a framework for optimizing management practices plantation ecosystems.

SUMMARY Bamboo is known for its fast growth, and non‐structural carbohydrates (NSCs) play a pivotal role in bamboo's growth. Despite extensive research on the of NSCs, especially underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms, growth remains largely unexplored. By studying patterns various bamboo species, it was found that NSCs are transferred from mature to young shoots, facilitating their This review explores bamboo, covering content, distribution, storage, enzyme activities. It examines NSCs' physiological roles, including mobilization, transport, facilitation, discusses potential mechanisms. also summarizes gene expression involved NSC synthesis metabolism during regulate genes related sugar cell division, energy metabolism, wall synthesis, thereby regulating interact with hormone signaling networks. Lastly, winter drought cold stress stimulate storage transport. These stressors potentially serve as signals or prerequisites transport accumulation. In general, this progress impact providing foundation enhancing understanding investigation
