Fructan content and synthesis in leaf tissues of Festuca arundinacea

The concentration of fructan in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) changes during growth and in response to environment. The objective of this research was to compare the fructan concentration and fructosyl-transferase activity of tall fescue leaf tissues. Expanding leaves, inner and outer sh...

description The concentration of fructan in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) changes during growth and in response to environment. The objective of this research was to compare the fructan concentration and fructosyl-transferase activity of tall fescue leaf tissues. Expanding leaves, inner and outer sheaths, and expanded blades of greenhouse-grown tall fescue plants were assayed for fructan concentration and fructosyl-transferase activity. Leaf sheaths contained significantly more nonstructural carbohydrate than did the expanded blade. Sheaths also contained a greater percentage of fructan with more than six sugar residues (long chain fructan), than either the expanded blade or expanding leaf. Expanding leaves contained a greater concentration of fructose and oligosaccharides than did sheath or blade tissues. Expanding leaves also had the greatest fructosyl-transferase activity measured either as radiolabel incorporated into fructans in tissue pieces or protein extracts. Activity of fructosyl-transferase was greater in expanding leaf tissue than in sheath tissues.
