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 secret phloem of pumpkins [PDF]
The phloem of higher plants transports the products of photosynthesis and other nutrients over long distances from leaves to sink tissues, such as fruits, tubers, and roots, where they are used in growth or storage. The primary conducting cells of the phloem are the enucleate sieve elements, which are intimately connected to their neighboring companion

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 ...

Diversity of the Superfamily of Phloem Lectins (Phloem Protein 2) in Angiosperms [PDF]
Abstract Phloem protein 2 (PP2) is one of the most abundant and enigmatic proteins in the phloem sap. Although thought to be associated with structural P-protein, PP2 is translocated in the assimilate stream where its lectin activity or RNA-binding properties can exert effects over long distances.

Depending on their habitat conditions, plants can greatly change the growth rate of their roots. However, the mechanisms of such responses remain insufficiently clear.

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 ...

The Small RNA Component of Arabidopsis thaliana Phloem Sap and Its Response to Iron Deficiency
In order to discover sRNA that might function during iron deficiency stress, RNA was prepared from phloem exudates of Arabidopsis thaliana, and used for RNA-seq. Bioanalyzer results indicate that abundant RNA from phloem is small in size—less than 200 nt.

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.

Rice is the major source of arsenic (As) intake in humans, as this staple crop readily accumulates As in the grain. Identifying the genes and molecular mechanisms underlying As accumulation and tolerance is a crucial step toward developing rice with ...
