摘要: The Sugars Will Eventually be Exported Transporters (SWEET) family is a class of sugar transporters that play key roles in phloem loading, seed filling, pollen development and the stress response in plants. Here, a total of 18 JcSWEET genes were identified in physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) and classified into four clades by phylogenetic analysis. These JcSWEET genes share similar gene structures, and alternative splicing of messenger RNAs was observed for five of the JcSWEET genes. Three (JcSWEET1/4/5) of the JcSWEETs were found to possess transport activity for hexose molecules in yeast. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis of JcSWEETs in different tissues under normal growth conditions and abiotic stresses revealed that most are tissue-specifically expressed, and 12 JcSWEETs responded to either drought or salinity. The JcSWEET16 gene responded to drought and salinity stress in leaves, and the protein it encodes is localized in both the plasma membrane and the vacuolar membrane. The overexpression of JcSWEET16 in Arabidopsis thaliana modified the flowering time and saline tolerance levels but not the drought tolerance of the transgenic plants. Together, these results provide insights into the characteristics of SWEET genes in physic nut and could serve as a basis for cloning and further functional analysis of these genes.
