Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Sucrose, the major product of photosynthesis and the primary sugar transported as a soluble carbohydrate via the phloem, is a critical determinant for harvest yield in wheat crops. Sucrose-phosphatase (SPP) catalyzes the final step in the sucrose biosynthesis pathway, implying its essential role in the plant. RESULT: In this study, wheat SPP homologs genes were isolated from chromosomes 5A, 5B, and...
