Progress of Researches of Sugar Accumulation Mechanism of Horticultural Plant Fruits

Yongping Zhang

Abstract

Sugar kind and concentration have important effects on fruit flavor and quality. This review summarized sugar accumulation mechanism of horticultural plant fruits in two aspects: (1) sugar unload and sugar conversion in fruits; (2) the regulated factors in sugar accumulation. The regulated effects of sucrose metabolizing enzymes, mechanism of futile cycle and signal in sugar accumulating progress are explained. This study has summarized sugar accumulation factors and pointed out the prospect of sugar metabolism according to the current researches on this aspect.
