Sucrose phosphate synthase plays a key role in boron‐promoted sucrose synthesis in tobacco leaves

Abstract: Boron (B) is essential for plant growth. The mechanism of B interacting with sucrose transport is not fully understood. In detached tobacco leaves treated with increasing B concentrations, the concentrations of sucrose, glucose, fructose, and starch as well as the activities of sucrose phosphate synthetase (SPS), sucrose synthetase (SS), and a-amylase were quantified. In addition, the expression levels of sucrose transporters (SUT1 and SUT4) were determined. The data presented here suggest that B promotes the … Show more

“…NI activity pattern, involved in the cleavage of sucrose, was similar to the reported trends observed in loquat fruit during storage (Shao et al, 2012). The activities of SPS and SS may balance the sucrose content for the fruit during storage owing to the synthesis of sucrose for the generation of UDP, which was in accordance with our results (Kou et al, 2016; Shi et al, 2012). However, the synergistic effects of SS and SPS on sucrose concentration required further investigation.…”

“…SPS activity may play an important role in sucrose accumulation (Botha and Black, 2000;Shi et al, 2012), as it catalyzes the synthesis of sucrose for the generation of UDP. SS decomposes sucrose for the generation of UDPG and the possible storage of energy via a UDP activation of the hexose moiety (Bahaji et al, 2015).…”

“…Phosphotriose produced in photosynthesis is transported to the cytoplasm and converted to sucrose by sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) and sucrose synthase. P starvation reduces the activities of SPS and sucrose synthase in Brachiaria (Nanamori et al., 2004) and soybean (A. Yang, Kong et al., 2020), and can limit sucrose availability in developing grains (Shi et al., 2012). It has been argued that increases in the activities of ribulose‐1,5‐bisphosphate carboxylase‐oxygenase (RuBisCO) and SPS do not result in high hexose, sucrose, or starch content when there is a higher rate of sucrose export (Hu et al., 2016).…”
