Evidence for an essential role of the sucrose transporter in phloem loading and assimilate partitioning.

The EMBO journal - 1 Jan 1994

Riesmeier J W, Willmitzer L, Frommer W B

Abstract excerpt

Sucrose is the principal transport form of assimilates in most plants. In many species, translocation of assimilates from the mesophyll into the phloem for long distance transport is assumed to be carrier mediated. A putative sucrose proton cotransporter cDNA has been isolated from potato and sho...
