Sucrose is transported from sources (mature leaves) to sinks (importing tissues such as
roots, stems, fruits, and seeds) through the phloem tissues in veins. In many herbaceous …

Potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) are mineral nutrients that are required in large
quantities by plants. Both elements critically contribute to the process of photosynthesis and …

An incomplete understanding of how agrochemical nanocarrier properties affect their uptake
and translocation in plants limits their application for promoting sustainable agriculture …

Sucrose is produced in, and translocated from, photosynthetically active leaves (sources) to
support non-photosynthetic tissues (sinks), such as develo** seeds, fruits, and tubers …

Summary Trehalose 6‐phosphate (Tre6P) is a sucrose signalling metabolite that has been
implicated in regulation of shoot branching, but its precise role is not understood. We …

Main conclusion The regulation of source-to-sink sucrose transport is associated with AtSUC
and AtSWEET sucrose transporters' gene expression changes in plants grown …

It is generally believed that an osmotically generated pressure gradient drives the phloem
mass flow. So far, this widely accepted Münch theory has required remarkably few …

This study investigated the role of the sugar transporter OsSWEET11 during the early stage
of rice caryopsis development using β-glucoronidase (GUS) to represent its expression …

Tomato (Solanum lycopersium), an important fruit crop worldwide, requires efficient sugar
allocation for fruit development. However, molecular mechanisms for sugar import to fruits …
