Unplugging the callose plug from sieve pores Xie B; Hong ZPlant Signal Behav 2011[Apr]; 6 (4): 491-3The presence of callose in sieve plates has been known for a long time, but how this polysaccharide plug is synthesized has remained unsolved. Two independent laboratories have recently reported the identification of callose synthase 7 (CalS7), also known as glucan synthase-like 7 (GSL7), as the enzyme responsible for callose deposition in sieve plates. Mutant plants defective in this enzyme failed to synthesize callose in developing sieve plates during phloem formation and were unable to accumulate callose in sieve pores in response to stress treatments. The mutant plants developed less open pores per sieve plate and the pores were smaller in diameter. As a result, phloem conductivity was reduced significantly and the mutant plants were shorter and set fewer seeds.|Arabidopsis/metabolism/ultrastructure[MESH]|Gene Expression Regulation, Plant[MESH]|Glucans/*metabolism[MESH]|Phloem/metabolism/ultrastructure[MESH]|Plants/*metabolism/ultrastructure[MESH]|Plasmodesmata/metabolism/ultrastructure[MESH] |
