Radial-axial transport coordination enhances sugar translocation in the phloem vasculature of plants

open access: yes, 2022
International audienceThe overall speed of sap translocation increases by including a concentration-dependent viscosity in axial and radial directions.Understanding mass transport of photosynthates in the phloem of plants is necessary for predicting ...

Morpho‐Anatomical and HPTLC Investigations of Lysimachia nummularia L. (Primulaceae) Grown in Switzerland

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This research provides a complete morphoanatomical description of Lysimachia nummularia, as well as a HPTLC profile. Standard techniques of light and scanning electron microscopies, as well as standard techniques of HPTLC, were used. ABSTRACT Primulaceae are distributed all over the world, encompassing around 2590 species.

Comparative proteomics of phloem exudates reveals long-distance signals potentially involved in Litchi chinensis flowering

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2020
It is well known that phloem is essential for transporting proteins as long-distance signals. In this study, a proteomic approach was carried out to identify proteins accumulated in phloem exudates at the pre-floral induction (PFId) stage, at the floral ...

Stem compression reversibly reduces phloem transport in Pinus sylvestris trees

open access: yes, 2015
Manipulating tree belowground carbon (C) transport enables investigation of the ecological and physiological roles of tree roots and their associated mycorrhizal fungi, as well as a range of other soil organisms and processes.

Transport of cadmium via xylem and phloem in maturing wheat shoots: Comparison with the translocation of zinc, strontium and rubidium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The toxic heavy metal cadmium is taken up by plants and may contaminate harvested parts of agricultural crops. In the experiments reported here, cadmium was introduced together with markers for phloem (rubidium) and xylem (strontium) transport, either ...

Iron Fertilization of Soybean Genotypes Differing in Iron Use Efficiency Under Alkaline Conditions: Implications for Yield and Seed Nutritional Quality

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Soybean, a nutritionally important protein‐ and oil‐rich legume, is highly sensitive to iron (Fe) deficiency under alkaline conditions, where reduced Fe availability limits growth, yield, and seed quality. Effective biofortification therefore requires increasing seed Fe while reducing phytate that restricts Fe bioavailability.

Functional imaging of plants: A nuclear magnetic resonance study of a cucumber plant

open access: yes, 2002
Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to study transients of biophysical parameters in a cucumber plant in response to environmental changes. Detailed flow imaging experiments showed the location of xylem and phloem in the stem and the response ...

The Coumarin Glucoside, Esculin, Reveals Rapid Changes in Phloem-Transport Velocity in Response to Environmental Cues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The study of phloem transport and its vital roles in long-distance communication and carbon allocation have been hampered by a lack of suitable tools that allow high-throughput, real-time studies.

Liebig Review: Essential and Beneficial Elements in the Regulation of Cadmium Uptake and Tolerance in Crop Plants

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd2+) contamination in agricultural soils has been reported to pose risks to crop productivity, food safety, and human health. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms by which essential (S, Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca) and beneficial (Si, Se, rare earth elements) elements mitigate Cd2+ toxicity in plants.

Quantification of the xylem-to-phloem transfer of amino acids by use of inulin [14C]carboxylic acid as xylem transport marker

open access: yes, 1984
Inulin [¹⁴C] carboxylic acid and ¹⁴C.labelled amino acid (a-aminoisobutyric acid (aib) and valine) solutions were introduced into the transpiration stream through the cut stem bases of young (4-12 leaves) tomato plants. Inulin carboxylic acid (inu) was
