“…Some transporters are directly responsible for the primary C allocation. Sucrose transporter 2 (SUT2), located on the vacuolar membrane, transiently stores sucrose for subsequent growth in cereals ( Leach et al., 2017 ; Prasad et al., 2023 ). Both loss-of-function mutants of o ssut2 and zmsut2 exhibit severe growth restriction and accumulate more sucrose, fructose, glucose, and starch in the leaves ( Eom et al., 2011 ; Leach et al., 2017 ).…”

“…SWEETs may be among the most complex sugar transporter families ( Chen et al., 2012 ; Eom et al., 2015 ; Xue et al., 2022 ; Singh et al., 2023 ). The number of SWEETs are 24, 21, and 59, while the SUTs are 5, 5, and 18 in maize, rice, and wheat, respectively ( Zhu et al., 2022 ; Prasad et al., 2023 ). In maize, SWEET13, including ZmSWEET13a , b , and c , is responsible for sucrose efflux to the SE–CC complex.…”

The growth of yield outputs is dwindling after the first green revolution, which cannot meet the demand for the projected population increase by the mid-century, especially with the constant threat from extreme climates. Cereal yield requires carbon (C) assimilation in the source for subsequent allocation and utilization in the sink. However, whether the source or sink limits yield improvement, a crucial question for strategic orientation in future breeding and cultivation, is still under debate. To narrow the knowledge gap and capture the progress, we focus on maize, rice, and wheat by briefly reviewing recent advances in yield improvement by modulation of i) leaf photosynthesis; ii) primary C allocation, phloem loading, and unloading; iii) C utilization and grain storage; and iv) systemic sugar signals (e.g., trehalose 6-phosphate). We highlight strategies for optimizing C allocation and utilization to coordinate the source–sink relationships and promote yields. Finally, based on the understanding of these physiological mechanisms, we envisage a future scenery of “smart crop” consisting of flexible coordination of plant C economy, with the goal of yield improvement and resilience in the field population of cereals crops.
