| Research Abstract |
Fructose and glucose as sugars and potassium and chloride as major inorganic ions were revealed as major solute components and osmotic substances related to the hypertrophy of lodicules. Fructose and glucose were increased their contents four to five times higher compared with one hour before flowering. Soluble invertase activities measured at pH5.0 were ten times higher than those at pH7.0. Consequently, accumulations of fructose and glucose in the lodicules at flowering mightbe resulted from acidic invertase activities in the vacuoles of lodicules.
