Abstract
The relationship between the accumulation of D-glycero-D-ido-octulose (D-g-D-i-oct) and sucrose and desiccation tolerance was analysed in leaves of Craterostigma plantagineum Hochst. in various conditions. The D-g-D-i-oct level is strictly controlled in C. plantagienum. Light is an important factor enhancing D-g-D-i-oct synthesis when exogenous sucrose is supplied. Desiccation tolerance is lost during natural senescence and during sugar starvation that leads to senescence. The differences in expression patterns of senescence-related genes and the carbohydrate status between vigorous and senescent plants indicate that desiccation tolerance and accumulation of octulose in C. plantagineum is dependent on the developmental stage. Sucrose synthesis is affected more by dehydration than by senescence. D-g-D-i-oct has superior hydroxyl scavenging ability to other common sugars accumulating in C. plantagineum. In the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) D-g-D-i-oct levels decreased, probably as a defence reaction.
