Levels of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F2,6BP) and related metabolites were measured in 8- or 9-day-old barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) primary leaves throughout a 24 hour cycle. Young barley leaves contained about 0.4 nanomole F2,6BP per milligram chlorophyll at the end of a 12 hour dark period. F2,6BP levels increased rapidly following a dark-to-light transition and then decreased to about 0.1 nanomole per milligram chlorophyll after 5 or 10 minutes of light. Low levels of F2,6BP were detected in barley primary leaves throughout the day. A 10-fold increase in F2,6BP was observed during the first hour of the dark period and then levels of this metabolite decreased slowly for the next several hours. Only small diurnal fluctuations were noted in barley leaf glucose 6-phosphate and uridine 5'-diphosphoglucose levels. There were rapid changes in whole leaf F2,6BP levels when the light intensity was altered. High F2,6BP levels in the dark were not observed after short photosynthetic periods. Results obtained with barley primary leaves support the suggestion that F2,6BP is involved in regulating the flow of photosynthate from the chloroplast to sucrose. Extractable sucrose-phosphate synthase activity was inversely related to barley primary leaf F2,6BP levels. This finding may indicate that the activities of sucrose-phosphate synthase and cytosolic fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase in barley primary leaves are metabolically coordinated.
