We assessed the extent to which fructans from various sources and added in various forms (raw materials in diet alone or incorporated into a strawberry matrix) differ in their effectiveness towards selected parameters related to bone health under calcium

Fructan synthesis is inhibited by phosphate in warm-grown, but not in cold-treated,excised barley leaves. [PDF]
The inhibition by phosphate of fructan accumulation has been investigated in warm3 grown and cold-treated barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plants.

Dried chicory root (Cichorium intybus L.) as a natural fructan source in rabbit diet: effects on growth performance, digestion and caecal and carcass traits [PDF]
[EN] Three experimental diets were formulated including (per kg) 100 g oats (control diet), 50 g chicory root (Chicory 5 diet) or 100 g chicory root (Chicory 10 diet) at the expense of oats. The diets differed with respect to starch and fructan contents.

Spatio-Temporal Dynamics of Fructan Metabolism in Developing Barley Grains [PDF]
Abstract Barley (Hordeum vulgare) grain development follows a series of defined morphological and physiological stages and depends on the supply of assimilates (mainly sucrose) from the mother plant. Here, spatio-temporal patterns of sugar distributions were investigated by mass spectrometric imaging, targeted metabolite analyses, and ...

SEASONAL PATTERNS OF FRUCTAN METABOLISM IN FORAGE GRASSES [PDF]
SummaryFructan levels and mean molecular weights were measured throughout the year in leaves and stems of four forage grasses. In contrast to other studies, the major period of fructan synthesis in all varieties was autumn and winter, with maximal values in December.

Key Molecular and Metabolic Processes Used for Genetic Engineering to Improve Freezing Tolerance in Cereals [PDF]
It has been estimated recently that cereals are harvested on 700 million hectares (Mha) worldwide (Dunwell, 2014), and also that, due to low temperature damage, worldwide losses in crop production amount to about US$2 billion each year (Sanghera et ...

Fructans Prime ROS Dynamics and Botrytis cinerea Resistance in Arabidopsis
Naturally derived molecules can be used as priming or defense stimulatory agents to protect against biotic stress. Fructans have gained strong interest due to their ability to induce resistance in a number of crop species.

Fructan Metabolism in Wheat in Alternating Warm and Cold Temperatures [PDF]
The objective of this research was to develop a system in which the direction of fructan metabolism could be controlled. Three-week-old wheat seedlings (Triticum aestivum L. cv Caldwell) grown at 25 degrees C were transferred to cold temperature (10 degrees C) to induce fructan synthesis and then were transferred to continuous darkness at 25 degrees C ...
