Schematic representation of the hypothesized function of OsSWEET11 during Rhizoctonia solani infection. Rhizoctonia solani infection activates the expression of OsSWEET11 via an unknown mechanism to efflux sucrose to the apoplasm, and cell wall invertase catabolizes sucrose to glucose and fructose. Further, glucose can be taken up into R. solani cells. The expression of mutated OsSWEET11 via the Rubisco promoter may generate a non‐functional OsSWEET11 complex. The wild‐type (WT) OsSWEET11 induced by R. solani may form heterotrimers consisting of WT OsSWEET11 and mutated OsSWEET11, which may be expressed under the Rubisco promoter, and the non‐functional OsSWEET11 complex may inhibit sugar efflux.
