In plants, trehalose-6-phosphate (Tre6P) synthesized by the Tre6P synthase (TPS) acts as a signal metabolite in regulating sucrose metabolism in relation to plant growth and development. TheHeveagenome predicts a total of 14TPSgenes, and two class ITPSmembers,HbTPS1and2, were explored here for their expressions under various hormone and abiotic stress treatments.HbTPS1and2expressions in latex, cytoplasm of rubber-producing laticifers, were markedly affected by the treatments of ethephon (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid, an ethylene releaser), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, jasmonic acid and salicylic acid although in a distinct manner.HbTPS1and2expressions were significantly up-regulated in a similar manner by cold (5 °C) and heat (40 °C) as examined inHeveaseedling leaves and roots, and by wounding in latex. In comparison, the drought treatment (20% PEG) posed a different effect onHbTPS1and2expressions inHeveaseedlings. For example, in roots,HbTPS1transcripts accumulated with the treatment, whereas those ofHbTPS2decreased for the first 24 h. Various hormone- and stress-responsive elements could bein silicopredicted inHbTPS1and2promoters, and a universal expression was observed for the HbTPS1::GUS activity in all growth stages of transgenicArabidopsis. These results, coupled with the fact of rubber biosynthesis as a defense response using sucrose as the precursor molecule, propose a potential role ofTPSgenes in regulating rubber production.
