Dynamics of dry matter accumulation in internodes indicates source and sink relations during grain-filling stage of japonica rice

, 2020
Storage of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in internode parenchyma before anthesis functions as a major carbon source for rice grain filling.

Source-Sink Relations in North American Ginseng Seedlings as Influenced by Leaflet Removal [PDF]

Journal of Ginseng Research, 2008
Seedlings of North American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.) were grown to full canopy establishment and then leaflet or leaf removal at different times applied to determine the effects on plant growth and performance. Leaf removal at 47, 57, 69 and 78 days after seeding resulted in 82.1, 59.8, 41.3 and 29.8% reduction, respectively, in root dry matter

The impact of growth stimulators and retardants on the utilization of reserve lipids by sunflower seedlings

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2017
Using growth stimulators and anti-gibberillin preparations of different chemical compounds, we created different pressures in the coordinate covalent bond systems during germination of sunflower seeds.

A rational approximation to the evolution of a free surface during fluid withdrawal through a point sink [PDF]

, 2010
The time varying flow in which fluid is withdrawn from a reservoir through a point sink of variable strength beneath a free surface is considered. Asymptotic techniques are used to derive an approximate solution to the flow that is valid at intermediate ...

Source - sink balance and manipulating sink - source relations of wheat indicate that the yield potential of wheat is sink-limited in high-rainfall zones

, 2010
Grain yield depends on the number of grains per unit area (sink) and the availability of assimilates (source) to fill these grains. The aim of the current work was to determine whether wheat yield in the high-rainfall zone of south-western Australia is ...

Adaptive branching in source-sink habitats

, 2009
Evolution and ecological diversification in a heterogeneous environment is driven by an often complex interplay between local adaptation and dispersal between different habitat types.

Recovery and Utilization of Low-Grade Waste Heat in the Oil-Refining Industry Using Heat Engines and Heat Pumps: An International Technoeconomic Comparison

Energies, 2020
We assess the technoeconomic feasibility of onsite electricity and steam generation from recovered low-grade thermal energy in oil refineries using organic Rankine cycle (ORC) engines and mechanical vapour compression (MVC) heat pumps in various ...

Effect of changed source/sink relations on proteolytic activities and on nitrogen mobilization in field-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]

, 2017
Nitrogen mobilization and the pattern of proteolytic enzymes were investigated in leaves and glumes of field-grown winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) during maturation. Source/sink relations were changed by removal of the ear, the flag leaf or the lower

Source-Sink index for all islands in the Hawaiian Archipelago for the 5-year model run.

, 2016
Positive numbers indicate a net source location, and negative numbers indicate a sink location. Green color denotes particles released during May-June of each year and gray denotes distances for year-round releases.

A compartmentation approach to deconstruct ecosystem carbon fluxes of a Moso bamboo forest in subtropical China

Forest Ecosystems
Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) forests are a vital resource in subtropical China, known for their high carbon (C) sequestration capacity. However, the dynamic processes of C fluxes within each component (canopy, culm, and soil) and their individual ...
