Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Sucrose uptake and efflux across wheat nucellar membranes are passive.
- Intervention effect Sucrose uptake and efflux were insensitive to metabolic inhibitors, pH, and potassium concentration.
- Intervention effect p-Chloromercuribenzene sulfonate strongly inhibited sucrose uptake and efflux, unequally.
- Mechanism Sucrose movement appears carrier mediated rather than channel mediated, with incomplete evidence.
- Observation In vitro sucrose efflux rates were similar to or somewhat less than in vivo rates.
- Mechanism Transport across nucellar membranes could control assimilate import into wheat grains.
