Kinetics of sugar uptake by Arabidopsis cells exposed to B. cinerea elicitation in the Millicell system. Concentration-dependent uptake rates of [14C]glucose (a) and [14C]fructose (b) in Arabidopsis cells collected 24 hours post-elicitation (mean + /−SE of at least 2 independent experiments). Insert: Concentration-dependent uptake rates of low [14C]fructose concentrations. The best fitting kinetics were determined using GraphPad Prism software. Eadie-Hofstee plots of the initial uptake rates of glucose (c) and fructose (d). The best fitting plots were determined using GraphPad Prism software. Competition of [14C]glucose (e) and [14C]fructose (f) uptake by ten-fold excess of glucose, fructose or mannitol in Arabidopsis cells elicited for 24 hours (mean + /− SE of at least 2 independent experiments). Asterisks represent significant differences compared to the control condition (Student’s t-test, * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01).
