In addition, because of the high osmotic pressure generated by sucrose, the perivitelline spaces of mouse oocytes were enlarged.
However, rice is able to convert sucrose to starch at high temperature and humidity.
Each tube contained a strip of filter paper and a cotton pad soaked in 40% sucrose.
On the loss of water, sucrose and certain oligosaccharides or galactosyl cyclitols form high-viscosity, amorphous, super-saturated solutions.
Accumulation of sucrose and dehydrins occurs both during development and upon re-establishment of desiccation tolerance in germinated seeds.
Sucrose metabolism related to growth and ripening in sugarcane internodes.
The sucrose :oligosaccharide ratio continuously decreased reaching 0.13 in mature seeds.
Thus, there is substantial evidence that sucrose plays a role in dehydration tolerance of seeds.
