In the intact plant, inositol is synthesized in the leaf in response to salinization, and transported to the root in phloem. |
In multicellular plants fluxes to and from roots via xylem and phloem further complicate the situation. |
In Florida, Prokelisia are present throughout the year feeding on the phloem and laying eggs into the adaxial surfaces of the leaves. |
Cytokinins were analysed in leaf extracts, leaf phloem exudate and in the shoot apical meristem at different times during floral transition. |
Within the pod wall vasculature, phloem companion cells also appear to differentiate transfer cell-like wall ingrowths. |
In the vascular tissue of woody species, parenchyma cells include those in phloem, and the ray cells and axial parenchyma cells in xylem. |
