Abstract: Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an important food crop in tropical and subtropical regions. Sugar transporter
protein SWEETs facilitate the flow of sugar between cells and play an important role in plant growth and development. In
order to clarify the function of SWEET family genes in cassavaꎬ cassava‘KU50’ was used as material in this studyꎬ and
the gene properties of MeSWEET17b were studied by gene cloningꎬ bioinformatics analysisꎬ subcellular localizationꎬ in
vitro yeast detection and RT ̄qPCRꎬ etc. The results were as follows: (1) The open reading frame of MeSWEET17b was
726 bpꎬ encoding 242 amino acidsꎬ and located in the plasma membrane. MeSWEET17b had the closer genetic
relationship with AtSWEET16 and AtSWEET17ꎬ containing 7 transmembrane domainsꎬ and belonging to hydrophobic
protein. (2) MeSWEET17b mainly transport fructose through the in vitro yeast detection. (3) The results of RT ̄qPCR
showed that the expression trend of MeSWEET17b in stem was basically consistent with in petioleꎬ and the expression
was the highest at maturity. The relative expression of MeSWEET17b was relatively low in leavesꎬ and the highest in the
expansion stage of tuberous rootꎬ while decreased rapidly with the growth of tuberous roots. (4) The ‘KU50’ seedlings

were subjected to abiotic stress treatments such as high salt (8 gL NaCl)ꎬ drought (100 mmolL mannitol)ꎬ
oxidation (10% H O ) and cold (15 ℃ for 24 hꎬ then dropped to 4 ℃ for 24 h). RT ̄qPCR showed that the relative
2 2
expressions of MeSWEET17b in leaf and stem had the greatest difference under drought stress. The relative expressions of
MeSWEET17b in leaf and fibrous root changed most significantly under salt stressꎻ under oxidation and cold stressꎬ the
relative expressions of MeSWEET17b in fibrous root and petiole increased significantly with the extention of treating
time. This study provides a theoreticac reference for further studying the function mechanism of sugar transporter protein
SWEETs in cassava.
