A Tomato Vacuolar Invertase Inhibitor Mediates Sucrose Metabolism and Influences Fruit Ripening.
Fruit ripening is a complex process that involves a series of physiological and biochemical changes that ultimately influence fruit quality traits, such as color and flavor. Sugar metabolism is an important factor in ripening, and there is evidence that it influences various aspects of ripening, although the associated mechanism is not well understood. In this study, we identified and analyzed ...
متن کاملPosttranslational elevation of cell wall invertase activity by silencing its inhibitor in tomato delays leaf senescence and increases seed weight and fruit hexose level.
Invertase plays multiple pivotal roles in plant development. Thus, its activity must be tightly regulated in vivo. Emerging evidence suggests that a group of small proteins that inhibit invertase activity in vitro appears to exist in a wide variety of plants. However, little is known regarding their roles in planta. Here, we examined the function of INVINH1, a putative invertase inhibitor, in t...
متن کاملHigh invertase activity in tomato reproductive organs correlates with enhanced sucrose import into, and heat tolerance of, young fruit
Heat stress can cause severe crop yield losses by impairing reproductive development. However, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We examined patterns of carbon allocation and activities of sucrose cleavage enzymes in heat-tolerant (HT) and -sensitive (HS) tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) lines subjected to normal (control) and heat stress temperatures. At the control temperature ...
متن کاملSucrose Synthase, Starch Accumulation, and Tomato Fruit Sink Strength.
Contrasting evidence has accumulated regarding the role of acid invertase and sucrose synthase in tomato fruit sink establishment and maintenance. In this work the relationships among the activities of sucrose synthase and acid invertase, Lycopersicon esculentum Mill cv UC-82B fruit growth, and starch accumulation were analyzed in fruit at 0 to 39 d after anthesis. Sucrose synthase, but not aci...
متن کاملModeling sugar metabolism in tomato fruit.
Plant metabolism changes during development and involves many enzymes acting in different subcellular compartments. Although difficult for our brains to grasp, this complexity lends itself to mathematical modeling (reviewed in Schallau and Junker, 2010; Rohwer, 2012). Such modeling has examined the effects of increasing atmospheric CO2 and the fluxes of carbohydrate metabolism in sugarcane (Sac...
