Abstract
Tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.) transformed with sense and antisense constructs of a cDNA encoding the tobacco phosphate-triose phosphate-3-phosphoglycerate translocator (phosphate translocator) were shown to contain altered amounts of phosphate translocator mRNA and protein. Phosphate translocator activity in intact chloroplasts isolated from transformed plants showed a 15-fold variation, from 20% of the wild-type activity in antisense transformants to 300% of the wild-type activity in sense transformants. However, the maximal rates of photosynthesis and the rates of photosynthetic carbon assimilation in ambient CO2 showed no consistent differences between transformants. Starch content was decreased by 20% and total soluble sugars were increased by 20% in leaves of antisense transformants compared to sense transformants. The 40% decrease in the ratio of starch to total soluble sugars in antisense transformants relative to sense transformants indicates that distribution of assimilate between starch and sugar had been altered. However, the amount of sucrose in the leaves was unchanged. The changes in total soluble sugars were accounted for completely by changes in glucose and fructose, suggesting the existence of a homeostatic mechanism for maintaining sucrose concentrations in the leaves at the expense of glucose and fructose.
