Arabidopsis with a Deficiency in the Seed-Specific Regulation of
Carbohydrate Metabolism1

During oil deposition in developing
seeds of Arabidopsis, photosynthate is imported in the form of
carbohydrates into the embryo and converted to triacylglycerols. To
identify genes essential for this process and to investigate the
molecular basis for the developmental regulation of oil accumulation,
mutants producing wrinkled, incompletely filled seeds were isolated. A
novel mutant locus, wrinkled1 (wri1),
which maps to the bottom of chromosome 3 and causes an 80% reduction
in seed oil content, was identified. Wild-type and homozygous
wri1 mutant plantlets or mature plants were
indistinguishable. However, developing homozygous wri1
seeds were impaired in the incorporation of sucrose and glucose into triacylglycerols, but incorporated pyruvate and acetate at an increased rate. Because the activities of several glycolytic enzymes, in particular hexokinase and pyrophosphate-dependent
phosphofructokinase, are reduced in developing homozygous
wri1 seeds, it is suggested that WRI1 is
involved in the developmental regulation of carbohydrate metabolism
during seed filling.
