    2.7.1.4 | physiological function |
fructokinases play a key role in carbon metabolism and the accumulation of storage reserves in developing seeds. Overlapping and complementary roles of the plastidic AtFRK6 and the cytosolic AtFRK7 in seed storage accumulation, and the importance of AtFRKs for vascular development |

| 2.7.1.4 | physiological function |
fructose phosphorylation in the vascular tissues is highly important for cell-wall metabolism. SlFRK2 and SlFRK3 are involved in vascular tissue development and affects the shape, size, and cell-wall width of xylem vessels and xylem fibers |

| 2.7.1.4 | physiological function |
SlFRK1 is involved in vascular tissue development and hydraulic conductivity in tomato plants. SlFRK1 is important for normal phloem fiber development together with SlFRK2 |

| 2.7.1.4 | physiological function |
suppression of isoform FRK3 reduces the stem xylem area, stem and root water conductance, and whole-plant transpiration, with minor effects on plant development. Suppression of FRK3 accompanied by partial suppression of isoform FRK2 induces significant growth-inhibition effects, including the wilting of mature leaves. These growth effects are imposed primarily by the leaves, whose petioles have unlignified, thinwalled xylem fibers with collapsed parenchyma cells around the vessels |
