Change of soluble acid invertase gene (SAI-1) haplotype in hybrid sorghum breeding program in China.

ABSTRACT: Sugar metabolism is the most important and core one which drives plant growth and development. Invertases are key enzymes that regulate sugar metabolism. A still-growing number of studies have revealed that invertases play a crucial role in various aspects of plant growth and development. Crop yield is the product of sugar metabolism; it could be deduced that invertase also regulated the yield formation. So we have done a series of research on soluble acid invertase in sweet sorghum from enzyme activity to gene cloning and functional marker development. In this paper, we sequenced full length of SAI-1 gene in 69 grain sorghum parent lines, trying to see how it differs in their gene sequences and their distribution in related hybrid varieties released in the past. To our surprise, th
