The plant SWEET family is a sugar transporter family that plays a significant role in plant development. Here, seven loquat SWEET family members were identified by RNA-seq. These were designated as EjSWEET1, EjSWEET2a, EjSWEET2b, EjSWEET2c, EjSWEET4, EjSWEET15, and EjSWEET17. Phylogenetic and predictive functional annotation analyses suggest that the loquat SWEETs are classified as having sucrose, glucose and fructose transportation features. The in vivo responses of loquat SWEETs to exogenous sugar or NaCl was investigated by applying high concentrations of sugar or salt to 7-month-old loquat seedlings cultured in a nutrient medium. The results showed that most loquat SWEET genes can respond to exogenous applications of sucrose, glucose, fructose and salt. The response of EjSWEET1 to exogenous fructose was faster than the others, indicating that EjSWEET1 is more sensitive to exogenous fructose compared with other loquat SWEETs. EjSWEET15 can be induced by sucrose, but is suppressed by glucose. This indicates its possible role in sucrose transporting. The response of loquat SWEETs to NaCl showed broadly similar patterns compared to sugars. However, after a longer time of NaCl treatment, most loquat SWEETs are upregulated, especially EjSWEET15. This indicates its long-term response to high salinity.
