| Summary: | Ornamental plants are widely used for beautifying the living environment because of their good ornamental value of flowers, leaves and fruits. Sugar transporters play critical roles in the growth and development, flowering and fruiting, and response to stress of ornamental plants. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the effects of sugar transporters on ornamental plants. Monosaccharide transporters, sucrose transporters/sucrose carriers and sugars will eventually be exported transporters are three major sugar transporters discovered in plants. The classification and basic characteristics of these sugar transporters in different ornamental plants were compared and discussed. We also summarized the function and regulation of these transporters in terms of recent research progress to provide a theoretical basis for the future use of genetic engineering technology to improve ornamental plants and enhance their ornamental and adaptive properties. |
