Coordination Between Phloem Loading and Structure Maintains Carbon Transport Under Drought
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 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.

The effects of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide on shoot-root nitrogen and water signaling. [PDF]
, 2013 Terrestrial higher plants are composed of roots and shoots, distinct organs that conduct complementary functions in dissimilar environments. For example, roots are responsible for acquiring water and nutrients such as inorganic nitrogen from the soil ...

OBERON3 and SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2 1-LIKE proteins form a regulatory module driving phloem development
Nature Communications, 2023 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.

Investigating Nutrient Supply Effects on Plant Growth and Seed Nutrient Content in Common Bean
Plants, 2022 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.

Phloem wedges in Malpighiaceae: origin, structure, diversification, and systematic relevance
EvoDevo, 2022 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,

Passive phloem loading and long-distance transport in a synthetic tree-on-a-chip [PDF]
, 2017 Vascular plants rely on differences of osmotic pressure to export sugars from regions of synthesis (mature leaves) to sugar sinks (roots, fruits). In this process, known as M\"unch pressure flow, the loading of sugars from photosynthetic cells to the ...
