Fructans in crested wheatgrass leaves
Journal of Plant Physiology, 2003Crested wheatgrass is an important cool-season grass that has become naturalized in many semiarid regions of the western U.S. It provides ground cover and reduces soil erosion caused by water and wind. Additionally, crested wheatgrass produces important forage for livestock and wildlife on 6 to 8 million hectars of western rangeland. It is well adapted

Engineering fructan metabolism in plants
Journal of Plant Physiology, 2003Fructans, or polyfructosylsucroses, are storage carbohydrates present in many higher plants. They are also considered healthy food ingredients. Engineering crops into high level production of specific fructan molecules is one of the mayor strategic research goals.

From fructans to difructose dianhydrides
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014Fructans are the polymers of fructose molecules, normally having a sucrose unit at what would otherwise be the reducing terminus. Inulin and levan are two basic types of simple fructan, which contain β-(2, 1) and β-(2, 6) fructosyl-fructose linkage, respectively.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the synthesis of fructan hydrolases. The patterns of action of fructan hydrolases fall within one of several categories: (1) unspecific β-fructofuranosidases capable of hydrolyzing sucrose and β-2:l (inulin type) and β-2:6 (levan type) fructofuranosidic linkages.

Absence of Fructan Degradation During Fructan Accumulation in Wheat Stems
Journal of Plant Physiology, 1990Summary Turnover of fructan accumulated in the penultimate internode of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was studied after anthesis. Two genotypes differing in the rate of accumulation and remobilization of water-soluble carbohydrates in the stem were used in the study; plants were grown in growth chambers at ambient CO2.
