Connecting Source with Sink: The Role of Arabidopsis AAP8 in Phloem Loading of Amino Acids.

Plant physiology - 1 May 2016

Santiago James P, Tegeder Mechthild

Abstract excerpt

Allocation of large amounts of nitrogen to developing organs occurs in the phloem and is essential for plant growth and seed development. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and many other plant species, amino acids represent the dominant nitrogen transport forms in the phloem, and they are mainly synthesized in photosynthetically active source leaves. Following their synthesis, a broad spectrum of the amino...
