Sucrose is transported from sources (mature leaves) to sinks (importing tissues such as
roots, stems, fruits, and seeds) through the phloem tissues in veins. In many herbaceous …

Abstract Sugars Will Eventually be Exported Transporters (SWEETs) have important roles in
numerous physiological mechanisms where sugar efflux is critical, including phloem …

The rate with which crop yields per hectare increase each year is plateauing at the same
time that human population growth and other factors increase food demand. Increasing yield …

Despite the relevance of seed‐filling mechanisms for crop yield, we still have only a
rudimentary understanding of the transport processes that supply the caryopsis with sugars …

Plant membrane transporters controlling metabolite distribution contribute key agronomic
traits,,,,–. To eliminate anti-nutritional factors in edible parts of crops, the mutation of …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersium), an important fruit crop worldwide, requires efficient sugar
allocation for fruit development. However, molecular mechanisms for sugar import to fruits …

Genome-editing technologies offer unprecedented opportunities for crop improvement with
superior precision and speed. This review presents an analysis of the current state of …

The flux, distribution, and storage of soluble sugars regulate crop yield in terms of starch, oil,
protein, and total carbohydrates, and affect the quality of many horticultural products. Sugar …

Salinity stress seriously threatens agricultural productivity and food security worldwide. This
