Source to sink transport and regulation by environmental factors
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 Source-to-sink transport of sugar is one of the major determinants of plant growth and relies on the efficient and controlled distribution of sucrose (and some other sugars such as raffinose and polyols) across plant organs through the phloem.

Identification of miRNA precursors in the phloem of Cucurbita maxima [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Plant development and responses to environmental cues largely depend on mobile signals including microRNAs (miRNAs) required for post-transcriptional silencing of specific genes.

Heavy Metals in Crop Plants: Transport and Redistribution Processes on the Whole Plant Level
Agronomy, 2015 Copper, zinc, manganese, iron, nickel and molybdenum are essential micronutrients for plants. However, when present in excess they may damage the plant or decrease the quality of harvested plant products.

Uptake and transport of antibiotic kasugamycin in castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) seedlings
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Kasugamycin (KSM), an aminoglycoside antibiotic, has been widely used for the management of plant diseases, especially for the control of rice blast in Asia. However, its uptake mechanism and transport in plants are still obscure.

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.

Phloem RNA-binding proteins as potential components of the long-distance RNA transport system.
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) govern a myriad of different essential processes in eukaryotic cells. Recent evidence reveals that apart from playing critical roles in RNA metabolism and RNA transport, RBPs perform a key function in plant adaption to various

Phloem transport: Are you chaperoned? [PDF]
Current Biology, 1999 Long-distance transport via the vasculature in plants is critical for nutrient dissemination, as well as transport of growth regulatory molecules such as hormones. Evidence is now accumulating that protein and RNA molecules also use this transport pathway, possibly to regulate developmental and physiological processes.
