In contrast to wild-type fiber PDs, which opened at 5 to 10 d postanthesis (DPA) and closed only at 15 to 25 DPA, plants with suppressed GhSCP2D expression had reduced sterol contents and closed PDs at 5 through 25 DPA. The GhSCP2D-suppressed fibers exhibited callose deposition at the PDs, likely due to reduced expression of GhPdBG3-2A/D, which encodes a PD-targeting β-1,3-glucanase. Both GhPdBG3-2A/D expression and callose deposition were sensitive to a sterol biosynthesis inhibitor. Moreover, suppressing GhSCP2D upregulated a cohort of SUT and SWEET sucrose transporter genes in fiber cells. Collectively, our results indicate that (1) GhSCP2D is required for GhPdBG3-2A/D expression to degrade callose at the PD, thereby contributing to the establishment of the symplasmic pathway; and (2) blocking the symplasmic pathway by downregulating GhSCP2D activates or increases the expression of SUTs and SWEETs, leading to the switch from symplasmic to apoplasmic pathways.]]> Wed 06 Jun 2018 14:11:15 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48554 Tue 21 Mar 2023 15:37:49 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30367 Thu 03 Feb 2022 12:18:59 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11175 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:14:32 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21262 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:54:43 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:42:13 AEDT ]]>
