PLANT PHYSIOLOGY rate of elongation of immnnature internodes were linearly related, both increasing with increasing temperature provided the plant had adequate water. Changes in the total sugar content of mature tissue were related to the neutral invertase activity of the tissue. The neutral invertase activity and sugar content of mature internodes increased as the temperature was decreased. The results are dliscussed in relation to the concept that invertases of sugar cane storage tissue contribute to the partitioning of available carbohydrate from photosynthesis between the processes of sugar storage and growth.
