Handbook of standardized protocols for collecting plant modularity traits (2019, background): “Carbohydrates are the main source of energy and carbon for plants, sustaining metabolism and growth (Patrick et al., 2013; Hartmann and Trumbore, 2016).”
Responses of sapwood ray parenchyma and non‐structural carbohydrates of Pinus sylvestris to drought and long‐term irrigation (2017, background): “Furthermore, the allo- cation of carbon to NSC reserves competes with structural growth (Muller et al. 2011), posing interesting questions about carbon allocation priority during periods of limited carbon uptake (Sala, Woodruff & Meinzer 2012; Hart- mann & Trumbore 2016).”
