Morpho-physiological responses of sunflower to foliar applications of chlormequat chloride (CCC)

Bioscience Journal, 2016
Chlormequat chloride (CCC) is used to inhibit extension growth in cereals and promote branching and flowering in potted ornamental plants produced in greenhouses; however, experimental data on the use of CCC in field sunflower are limited.

Fast and simple fluorometric measurement of phloem loading exposes auxin-dependent regulation of Arabidopsis sucrose transporter AtSUC2. [PDF]

Plant J
The rate of sucrose export from leaves is a major factor in balancing whole‐plant carbon and energy partitioning. We provide a new tool to study leaf sucrose export in relation to photosynthesis, sink demand, and other relevant processes by utilizing the ability of sucrose transporter proteins to specifically transport the fluorescent molecule esculin.
