Effect of Rapid Changes in Sink-Source Ratio on Export and Distribution of Products of Photosynthesis in Leaves of Beta vulgaris L. and Phaseolus vulgaris L. 1

Fondy, Bernadette R.
RESUMO
Effects of increasing sink-source ratio on rate of translocation and net carbon exchange were studied by darkening all but one source leaf of Beta vulgaris L. or one primary leaf of Phaseolus vulgaris L. Rates of export of labeled material and patterns of its distribution among sinks were studied by means of GM detectors. Changes in export and import rates were compared with adjustments in starch, sucrose, and glucose levels in sugar beet source leaves before and during treatment.
