Sucrose-to-Starch Metabolism in Tomato Fruit Undergoing Transient Starch Accumulation [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1997
Abstract Immature green tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) fruits undergo a period of transient starch accumulation characterized by developmental changes in the activities of key enzymes in the sucrose (Suc)-to-starch metabolic pathway.

The Effects of Short-Term Exposure to Low Temperatures During the Booting Stage on Starch Synthesis and Yields in Wheat Grain

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Low temperatures (LT) in spring can have a major impact on the yields of wheat in winter. Wheat varieties with different cold sensitivities (the cold-tolerant Yannong 19 variety and the cold-sensitive Yangmai 18 variety) were used to study the responses ...

A Reduced Starch Level in Plants at Early Stages of Infection by Viruses Can Be Considered a Broad-Range Indicator of Virus Presence

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The diagnosis of virus infection can facilitate the effective control of plant viral diseases. To date, serological and molecular methods for the detection of virus infection have been widely used, but these methods have disadvantages if applied for ...

Cecropia peltataAccumulates Starch or Soluble Glycogen by Differentially Regulating Starch Biosynthetic Genes   [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 2013
AbstractThe branched glucans glycogen and starch are the most widespread storage carbohydrates in living organisms. The production of semicrystalline starch granules in plants is more complex than that of small, soluble glycogen particles in microbes and animals.

Carotenoid accumulation affects redox status, starch metabolism, and flavonoid/anthocyanin accumulation in citrus [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2015
Carotenoids are indispensable plant secondary metabolites that are involved in photosynthesis, antioxidation, and phytohormone biosynthesis. Carotenoids are likely involved in other biological functions that have yet to be discovered. In this study, we integrated genomic, biochemical, and cellular studies to gain deep insight into carotenoid-related ...

Effect of Drought Stress During Flowering Stage on Starch Accumulation and Starch Synthesis Enzymes in Sorghum Grains

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2014
Starch content is a key factor affecting sorghum grain quality. The research of sorghum grain starch accumulation and the related synthesis enzyme activities has great significance for understanding the mechanisms of starch metabolisms.
