The mode of sucrose degradation in potato tubers determines the fate of assimilate utilisation.
Cytosolic (U-IN-2) or apoplasmic (U-IN-1) targeting of yeast invertase in potato tubers leads to reduced sucrose and increased glucose, but specific phenotypical changes are dependent on the subcellular targeting of the enzyme. U-IN-2 has a more severe phenotype with the most striking aspects being...
