Abstract: Sorbitol transporter(SOT)is an essential carrier for sorbitol transport in plants. A total of 22 expressed PpySOT members were identified from sand pear(Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai.)flesh by a RNA-seq analysis using Chinese white pear(P. bretschneideri Rehd.)genome as reference,with the top 10 members accounting for 92% of total transcript abundance. Tissue-specific expression patterns of these 10 members were observed via qRT-PCR. All members barely expressed in seed,PpySOT8 expressed in all tissues analysed,while the expression of PpySOT26 was mostly restricted in young leaves. The transcriptabundance of PpySOT2,PpySOT8,PpySOT10/28 and PpySOT33 was in a close positive correlation with sorbitol accumulation during fruit development. The content of sorbitol in flesh decreased during cold storage at 4 ℃,and it was related to the increased expression of PpySOT3,PpySOT4,PpySOT8,PpySOT25,PpySOT32 and PpySOT33.

Key words: Pyrus pyrifolia, sorbitol transporter(SOT), gene family, expression characteristic, fruit, sugar
