Abstract excerpt
In order to understand the role of sucrose synthase (SuSy) in carbon partitioning, metabolic fluxes were analyzed in maize root tips of a double mutant of SuSy genes, sh1 sus1 and the corresponding wild type, W22. [U-(14)C]-glucose pulse labeling experiments permitted the quantification of unidir...
