Fructan biosynthesis in transgenic plants.

Journal of experimental botany - 1 Jan 2003

Cairns Andrew J

Abstract excerpt

Data from plants transformed to accumulate fructan are assessed in the context of natural concentrations of reserve carbohydrates and natural fluxes of carbon in primary metabolism: Transgenic fructan accumulation is universally reported as an instantaneous endpoint concentration. In exceptional cases, concentrations of 60-160 mg g(-1) fresh mass were reported and compare favourably with naturally occurring...
