Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Export and longitudinal movement of labelled assimilates were greater in Sorghum than Lolium.
- Observation Sucrose predominated among metabolites translocated from both species in low and high light.
- Observation Primary metabolite differences followed expectations for C3 and C4 species.
- Intervention effect Reduced irradiance reduced labelled carbon incorporation into sucrose, especially in Sorghum.
- Intervention effect Reduced irradiance caused amino acid accumulation in both species.
- Association Species differences in assimilate export were apparently unrelated to sucrose labelling rate.
- Observation Starch was labelled rapidly at the outset.
- Association Higher irradiance favored starch storage relative to phloem movement.
- Association Irradiance from 20 to 96 W m-2 did not directly influence vein loading.
