Evidence that the hexose-to-sucrose ratio does not control the switch to storage product accumulation in oilseeds : analysis of tobacco seed development and effects of overexpressing apoplastic invertase

Wild-type tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) seed development was characterized with respect to architecture and carbohydrate metabolism. Tobacco seeds accumulate oil and protein in the embryo, cellular endosperm and inner layer of the seed coat. They have high cell wall invertase (INV) and hexoses in e...
