In our opinion, no pressing biological evidence has been presented by Barratt et al. to challenge the current paradigm on cellulose and starch metabolism involving SUS activity. In this context, we must emphasize that Angeles-Núñez and Tiessen have shown that SUS2 and SUS3 are required for channeling carbon toward ADP-glucose and starch in Arabidopsis seeds.
