Abstract:Siebröhren sind modular aufgebaute Transport‐ und Kommunikationskanäle im Phloem der Pflanzen. Sie transportieren nicht nur Photoassimilate, sondern auch eine Vielfalt anderer chemischer Verbindungen, beispielsweise verschiedene Proteine und sogar genetische Information in Form von RNA. Die einzelnen Module der Siebröhren bestehen aus zwei Komponenten: dem kernlosen Siebelement und der gleichsam hyperaktiven Geleitzelle, die den Stoffwechsel des Siebelements metabolisch unterstützt und deren Energieversorgung … Show more
“…In principle, a molecule can travel by diffusion in the apoplastic or symplastic space of plant tissue albeit slowly. In the dimension of some cells, this might be sufficient (calculated for hexose, van Bel and Hess, 2003 ). Kramer (2006) estimated that the decay length (the distance over which the hormone concentration decreases by a factor of 10) is several magnitudes lower in the apoplastic space (35–110 µm) compared with the flowing xylem sap, depending on the apoplastic dimension or xylem flow speed, respectively.…”
HighlightA meta-analysis of data shows that in Ricinus exposed to different nutritional conditions, xylem ABA concentration is better correlated with stomatal conductance, growth, and phloem sap ABA concentration than tissue ABA concentration.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
