Figure 1: Passive phloem loading in plants and in the synthetic tree-on-a-chip. Using our synthetic passive loader, we study in this paper the full dynamics of passive phloem loading, set by the ...

Several characteristics of the process of phloem unloading in the seed coat of developing seeds of Vicia faba L. were investigated. Prior to the procedure of measuring the release of solutes by the ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Phloem versus xylem water and carbon flow between a developing daughter cladode (flattened stem segment) and the underlying basal cladode of ...

Phloem diseases, including the economically devastating citrus greening, are particularly difficult to study because phloem cells -- essential for plant nutrient transport -- are difficult to access ...

Numerous insects and pathogens extract nutrients from phloem tissue buried deep inside plants. These phloem-feeding insects and pathogens cause tremendous economic losses worldwide and represent some ...

Researchers monitored the progression of phloem production over time in field-grown HLB-affected citrus trees to determine how the trees are capable of sustaining new growth. Results showed that new ...

One goes up... and one goes down. I was a college freshman in Botany 101 when I first learned about xylem and phloem, the two transport tissues which carry water and nutrients up and down a tree's ...

I'm here to remind you that when you eat a banana, you should also eat those stringy white parts-which are technically called "phloem bundles"-that people usually remove and throw away. What exactly ...

Reaching for a banana for a healthy snack always seems like such a good idea — until you start peeling it and remember that those annoying little strings exist. You know the ones: Those pale, dry ...
