Sentence examples for in carbon allocation from inspiring English sources

SUS3 and SUS4 are expressed predominantly in developing grains, indicating potential roles in carbon allocation in filling grains (Hirose et al. 2008).

While past research on drought responses and sensitivity of Northeastern U.S. tree species primarily emphasized mechanisms associated with regulation of leaf water potential, responses that involve shifts in carbon allocation or decreases in non-structural carbohydrates (NSC; e.g., sugars and starches that support metabolic function and growth) are also indicative of drought sensitivity.

Cleavage of sucrose, a major photoassimilate in plants, plays an important role in carbon allocation, not only by osmotically controlling the flux, but also by generating hexose-based signals to regulate genes involved in carbon metabolism in the sink organs (Herbers and Sonnewald 1998; Smeekens 2000; Koch 2004).

Many enzymes are involved in carbon allocation towards fructan biosynthesis.

This capability revealed extreme changes in carbon allocation in sorghum plants, as they advanced to maturity.

One such application includes ongoing functional genomics studies to investigate the roles of PoptrIAA and PoptrARF genes in carbon allocation and carbon sequestration.

A particular concern from a physiological perspective relies in assessing carbon allocation tradeoffs in concert with changing climates.

Decreased site nutrient availability was reflected by persistent inter-annual reductions in foliar N content and net primary production (NPP) (Norby et al. 2010), and a shift in carbon (C) allocation belowground to roots (Norby et al. 2004).

In fact, models like PnET-II strongly rely on carbon allocation in modeling forest water yield and productivity in response to drought for Northeastern U.S. forests (Aber et al. 1995; Ollinger et al. 1997).

Thus, increased invertase enzyme activity and the resultant decline in sucrose concentrations in sink tissues is intimately tied to phloem unloading and carbon allocation in the plant [ 3, 4].

Due to the increased global need for plant oil derived products for food but also for non-food applications to decrease our dependence on fossil oil, the interest in mechanisms for regulation of carbon allocation into oil in plant storage tissues has gained a lot of attention and can be of great economic and environmental importance in the process of developing new high-yielding oil crops [ 1, 2].
