Transcriptomics‐based analysis of the causes of sugar receding in Feizixiao litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) pulp

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
To investigate the causes of the “sugar receding” in ‘Feizixiao’ litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) pulp, the main sugar contents and sucrose metabolism enzyme activities were measured in pulp obtained in 2020 and 2021.

Enzymes and Metabolites in Carbohydrate Metabolism of Desiccation Tolerant Plants

Proteomes, 2016
Resurrection plants can tolerate extreme water loss. Substantial sugar accumulation is a phenomenon in resurrection plants during dehydration. Sugars have been identified as one important factor contributing to desiccation tolerance.

Identification of proteins and metabolic networks associated with sucrose accumulation in sugarcane (Saccharum spp. interspecific hybrids)

Journal of Plant Interactions, 2021
The rate of improvement of sugar content in sugarcane remains low for decades worldwide. Our previous transcriptome studies provided an atlas of sucrose accumulation-related gene expression, but little is known about the proteins involved.

Overexpression of MdFRK2 enhances apple drought resistance by promoting carbohydrate metabolism and root growth under drought stress

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2023
Soluble sugars function not only as the energy and structural blocks supporting plants, but also as osmoregulators and signal molecules during plant adaptation to water deficit.

OsRRM, an RNA-Binding Protein, Modulates Sugar Transport in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Sugar allocation between vegetative and reproductive tissues is vital to plant development, and sugar transporters play fundamental roles in this process. Although several transcription factors have been identified that control their transcription levels,

Metabolic engineering of sugars and simple sugar derivatives in plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2012
SummaryCarbon captured through photosynthesis is transported, and sometimes stored in plants, as sugar. All organic compounds in plants trace to carbon from sugars, so sugar metabolism is highly regulated and integrated with development. Sugars stored by plants are important to humans as foods and as renewable feedstocks for industrial conversion to ...

Expression patterns of genes involved in sugar metabolism and accumulation during apple fruit development.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Both sorbitol and sucrose are imported into apple fruit from leaves. The metabolism of sorbitol and sucrose fuels fruit growth and development, and accumulation of sugars in fruit is central to the edible quality of apple.

Dietary sugars and lipid metabolism in humans

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1995
When large amounts of sugars are included in the diets of humans and other animals, alterations in concentrations of plasma lipid constituents may be observed; usually elevation of triacylglycerol concentrations and sometimes elevation of low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol and depression of high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol.

Combination of transcriptomic, biochemical, and physiological analyses reveals sugar metabolism in Camellia drupifera fruit at different developmental stages

Frontiers in Plant Science
Camellia drupifera, a significant woody oil crop in southern China, produces oil from its fruit seeds. Understanding sugar metabolism enzyme regulation is crucial for sugar accumulation and oil synthesis in fruit organs.
