Molecular genetics of fructan metabolism in perennial ryegrass [PDF]

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2005
SummaryFructans are the main storage carbohydrates of temperate grasses, sustaining regrowth immediately after defoliation, as well as contributing to the nutritive value of feed. Fructan metabolism is based on the substrate sucrose and involves fructosyltransferases (FTs) for biosynthesis and fructan exohydrolases (FEHs) for degradation.

Exogenous classic phytohormones have limited regulatory effects on fructan and primary carbohydrate metabolism in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Fructans are polymers of fructose and one of the main constituents of water-soluble carbohydrates in forage grasses and cereal crops of temperate climates.

Linking expression of fructan active enzymes, cell wall invertases and sucrose transporters with fructan profiles in growing taproot of chicory (Cichorium intybus): Impact of hormonal and environmental cues

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
In chicory taproot, the inulin-type fructans serve as carbohydrate reserve. Inulin metabolism is mediated by fructan active enzymes (FAZYs): sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase (1-SST; fructan synthesis), fructan:fructan-1-fructosyltransferase (1-FFT;

Fructan biosynthesis and degradation as part of plant metabolism controlling sugar fluxes during durum wheat kernel maturation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Wheat kernels contain fructans, fructose based oligosaccharides with prebiotic properties, in levels between 2 and 35 weight % depending on the developmental stage of the kernel.

Sugar signaling of fructan metabolism: New insights on protein phosphatases in sucrose-fed wheat leaves. [PDF]

Plant Signal Behav, 2010
Protein phosphatase type 2A (PP2A) activity is required for the sucrose induction of fructan metabolism in wheat leaves, as shown in experiments with the addition of the specific inhibitor okadaic acid (OA) together with sucrose. However, a decrease in total PP2A activity has been found along sucrose treatment.
