Journal ArticleDOI

Differential response of antioxidant compounds to salinity stress in salt‐tolerant and salt‐sensitive seedlings of foxtail millet (Setaria italica)

TL;DR: Comparative studies indicate that salt-induced oxidative tolerance is conferred by an enhanced compartment- specific activity of the antioxidant enzymes in response to compartment-specific signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a Vacuolar Sucrose Transporter in Barley and Arabidopsis Mesophyll Cells by a Tonoplast Proteomic Approach

TL;DR: The Suc transporter (SUT) HvSUT2 was discovered among the 40 vacuolar proteins, which were previously not reported in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) vacUolar proteomic studies, and green fluorescence at the tonoplast indicated that these Suc transporters are indeed located at the vacuol membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sucrose transport into barley seeds: molecular characterization of two transporters and implications for seed development and starch accumulation

TL;DR: The rapid induction of HvSUT1 gene expression in caryopses at approximately 5-6 days after fertilization coincides with increasing levels of sucrose as well as sucrose synthase mRNA and activity, and occurs immediately before the onset of rapid starch accumulation within the endosperm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Barley Grain Maturation and Germination: Metabolic Pathway and Regulatory Network Commonalities and Differences Highlighted by New MapMan/PageMan Profiling Tools

TL;DR: New bioinformatics PageMan and MapMan tools developed in barley have been successfully used to investigate in detail the transcriptome relationships between seed maturation and germination in an important crop plant.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of invertases and hexose transporters in controlling sugar ratios in maternal and filial tissues of barley caryopses during early development

TL;DR: The temporal and spatial association of HvCWINV1 and HvSTP1 expression indicates that hexoses liberated by the invertase within the endospermal cavity are taken up by the transporter to be delivered into the central uncellularised space of theendosperm to supply mitotically active endosperm cells with hexoses.
