Effects of EDAH, a novel plant growth regulator, on mechanical strength, stalk vascular bundles and grain yield of summer maize at high densities (2017, background): “…determine stalk lodging resistance (Cui et al., 2012; Li et al., 2012), but also play a crucial role in the flow of nutrients, photosynthate, and water, permitting material communication and transportation between the roots and canopy (i.e. bleeding sap; Lalonde et al., 2003; Feng et al., 2014).”
Modeling xylem and phloem water flows in trees according to cohesion theory and Münch hypothesis (2005, background): “The recent reviews by van Bel (2003) and Lalonde et al. (2003) have shown that we are gradually starting to understand the physiology of phloem transport but van Bel (2003) also points out that the linking of the physiology with environmental variation is a further challenge in this field.”
Role of Translocation as A Mechanism of Resistance to Glyphosate (2009, background): “Oligosaccharides cannot diffuse back to the mesophyll cells through the plasmodesmata because of their large size, but the oligosaccharides can be loaded into the sieve element (Lalonde et al. 2003).”
Scaling phloem transport: water potential equilibrium and osmoregulatory flow (2003, background): “F̂ and Lalonde et al. (2003) that ‘information’ regarding sink demand or plant water status could be transmitted throughout the phloem as a change in turgor.”
Sugars in crop plants (2011, background): “Phloem loading at the source and unloading at the sink may occur symplastically through plasmodesmata linking mesophyll cells with the sieve elements, or apoplastically, involving export to the apoplast and transfer across the plasma membrane, a process mediated by proton-coupled sucrose transporter”
Sap flow and sugar transport in plants (2016, background): “…to sinks such as young leaves, roots, and seeds is generally a passive process which is facilitated by wide plasmodesmata as seen in the spreading behavior of radioactive sugars, tracers, and fluorescent macromolecules (Schulz, 1995; Lalonde et al., 2003; Wright et al., 2003; Stadler et al., 2005).”
Scaling phloem transport: information transmission (2004, background): “There is considerable experimental evidence, both direct and circumstantial, that solute flux in the phloem is controlled by a pressure feedback regulatory system, though the details of such a system are not yet known (Lalonde et al. 2003; van Bel 2003).”
