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 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 ...

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

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

Source-sink relationship in Hausa potato [PDF]

, 2022
Fresh tuber yield of Hausa potato [Solenostemon rotundifolius (Poir) J.K. Morton] is generally low in Nigeria, perhaps, due to a lack of balance between the source and the sink.

First Steps to Domesticate Hairy Stork’s-Bill (Erodium crassifolium) as a Commercial Pharmaceutical Crop for Arid Regions

Agronomy, 2021
Hairy stork’s-bill (Erodium crassifolium) (HSB) is one of the few Geraniaceae species that produce tubers. While HSB tubers were occasionally used as a food source by desert nomads, they have not yet been taken up in the modern kitchen.

Data Mining Nitrogen-Responsive Gene Expression for Source–Sink Relations and Indicators of N Status in Potato

Agronomy, 2020
Potato tuber yields depend on nitrogen (N) supply, which affects source–sink relations. Transcriptome sequencing of the foliar source using a single field trial identified gene expression responsive to 180 kg N ha−1.

Steady free surface flows induced by a submerged ring source or sink [PDF]

, 2012
The steady axisymmetric flow induced by a ring sink (or source) submerged in an unbounded inviscid fluid is computed and the resulting deformation of the free surface is obtained.
