Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Glyphosate stopped net starch accumulation in sugarbeet source leaves.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate stopped carbon export from source leaves in darkness after ten hours of light treatment.
- Observation Glyphosate was not transported from treated leaves during periods without carbon export.
- Mechanism The authors infer that disrupted carbon metabolism limits glyphosate transport.
