Triose phosphate utilization in leaves is modulated by whole-plant sink–source ratios and nitrogen budgets in rice [PDF]
, 2023 International audienceTriose phosphate utilization (TPU) is a biochemical process indicating carbon sink-source (im)balance within leaves. When TPU limits leaf photosynthesis, photorespiration-associated amino acid exports probably provide an additional ...

Source/Sink Relations of Abscising and Nonabscising Soybean Flowers [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1984 The partitioning of recently fixed (14)C to setting and abscising flowers within the axillary raceme of ;Clark' isoline E1t soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr) was examined as a function of time after anthesis of individual flowers. In such racemes, the first four flowers showed a 17% abscission while the next four flowers showed 47% abscission.Source/sink ...

Bunch Weight Determination in Relation to the Source-Sink Balance in 12 Cavendish Banana Cultivars [PDF]
Agronomy, 2022 This study was carried out to compare bunch weight determination in relation to the source-sink balance in a selection of 12 Cavendish banana cultivars. Fruit number and individual fruit weight are the main bunch weight components. The fruit number depended on the growth potential during floral induction, which we estimated according to the active leaf

Source-Sink Relations in Maize Mutants with Starch-Deficient Endosperms [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1982 Partitioning and translocation of photosynthates were compared between a nonmutant genotype (Oh 43) of corn (Zea mays L.) and two starch-deficient endosperm mutants, shruken-2 (sh2) and brittle-1 (bt1), with similar genetic backgrounds. Steady-state levels of (14)CO(2) were supplied to source leaf blades for 2-hour periods, followed by separation and ...

Cycas micronesica Stem Carbohydrates Decline Following Leaf and Male Cone Growth Events
Plants, 2020 The growth of synchronized leaf flushes or male cones on Cycas trees is an ephemeral event, and non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) are likely deployed from stem and root storage tissues to support their construction. The relationships among various stem
