Nitrogen and potassium fertilization regulates source–sink relations, biomass allocation, and nutrient dynamics for industrial biomass production in cassava (

Industrial Crops and Products
Cassava fertilization primarily targets the enhancement of fresh storage-root yield, while fresh stem-and-leaf yield, source-sink allocation, and nutrient balances are often overlooked.

Root-to-shoot signaling positively mediates source-sink relation in late growth stages in diploid and tetraploid wheat

BMC Plant Biology
Non-hydraulic root source signaling (nHRS) is a unique positive response to soil drying in the regulation of plant growth and development. However, it is unclear how the nHRS mediates the tradeoff between source and sink at the late growth stages and its

Temporal Accumulation and Partitioning of Mineral Nutrients in Developing Macadamia Fruit

Horticulturae
This study quantified nutrient accumulation and partitioning among the kernel, shell, husk, rachis, and leaves during fruit development in three macadamia cultivars. Racemes and leaves were sampled at biweekly intervals until kernel maturity.

Towards stochastic simulation of crop yield: a case study of fruit set in sweet pepper [PDF]

, 2010
Crop growth simulation models are widely used in research and education, and their use in commercial practice is increasing. Usually these models are deterministic: one set of input values always gives the same output of the model.

A note on withdrawal from a fluid of finite depth through a point sink [PDF]

, 2002
The problem of withdrawal through a point sink of water from a fluid of finite depth with a free surface is considered. Assuming the flow to be axisymmetric, it is found that there is a maximum Froude number at which such flows can exist.

Recent advances in the long-distance transport of sugars by the phloem and consequences on source-sink relations

, 2023
International audienceThe distribution of photoassimilates in the plant relies on the phloem functions from source to sink organs. Phloem sugar transport is regulated by SUC/SUT and SWEET sugar transporters. We observed that deregulation of SUT1 or SUT2

From Growth Dynamics to Agronomic Decisions: A Conceptual Framework for Diagnosing Limiting Processes in Crop Productivity

Agronomy
Crop productivity emerges from interacting processes of resource capture, biomass production, allocation, and yield formation. Final yield alone cannot identify which process limited production, when the limitation occurred, or whether additional inputs ...

Optimization of non-uniform heat source/sink in a viscoplastic nanofluid with thermal radiation: the case of Bingham-Papanastasiou rheological theory

Results in Surfaces and Interfaces
Viscoplasticity is defined by a yield stress where materials exhibit no deformation below this yield stress, while above it, they undergo deformation and flow in accordance with various constitutive relations.

Investigating phloem transport dynamics in Arabidopsis through compartmental modelling of positron emission tomography data

Plant Methods
Background Phloem is the long-distance transport tissue of vascular plants in which photoassimilates are distributed from sources (e.g., leaves) to sinks (e.g., roots, fruits).
