Coordination Between Phloem Loading and Structure Maintains Carbon Transport Under Drought
Maintaining phloem transport under water stress is expected to be crucial to whole-plant drought tolerance, but the traits that benefit phloem function under drought are poorly understood.

OBERON3 and SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2 1-LIKE proteins form a regulatory module driving phloem development
Spatial specificity of cell fate decisions is central for organismal development. The phloem tissue mediates long-distance transport of energy metabolites along plant bodies and is characterized by an exceptional degree of cellular specialization.

Phloem wedges in Malpighiaceae: origin, structure, diversification, and systematic relevance
Background Phloem wedges furrowing the wood are one of the most notorious, widespread types of cambial variants in Angiosperms. Many lianas in Malpighiaceae show these variations in the arrangement of the secondary tissues. Here we explore their ontogeny,

Investigating Nutrient Supply Effects on Plant Growth and Seed Nutrient Content in Common Bean
Low soil fertility commonly limits growth and yield production of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in tropical regions. Impacts of nutrient limitations on production volume are well studied and are a major factor in reducing crop yields.

Bark of assimilation shoots of the Beauverd spirea shrub (Spiraea beauverdiana S.K. Schneid.): structural changes under the conditions of volcanic stress in the South Kuril Islands and the Kamchatka Peninsula [PDF]
The article analyzes the bark of annual assimilation shoots of the Beauverd spirea shrub (Spiraea beauverdiana S.K. Schneid., Rosaceae Juss.) growing under the stressful conditions of volcanic and post-volcanic activity in the Kuril Islands (Kunashir ...

Sclerification in the bark tissues of common fir (Abies alba Mill.)
The sclerification process in bark tissues of common fir (Abies alba Mill.) has been described. The sclerification begins in 3 years old stems. Sclereids differentiate from cortical parenchyma cells and from secondary phloem parenchyma cells that do not ...

Sieve elements of many angiosperms contain structural phloem proteins (P-proteins) that can interact to create large P-protein bodies. P-protein bodies can occlude sieve plates upon injury but the range of functional and physiological roles of P-proteins

The systemic movement of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in cucumber plants was analyzed. The structure that is translocated and its putative interactions with phloem components were analyzed in phloem exudate (PE) samples, which reflect sieve tubes stream ...

Phloem unloading in Arabidopsis roots is convective and regulated by the phloem-pole pericycle
In plants, a complex mixture of solutes and macromolecules is transported by the phloem. Here, we examined how solutes and macromolecules are separated when they exit the phloem during the unloading process.
