Feed-Forward Effects on the Photosynthetic Source-Sink Balance in Single-Rooted Leaves of Sweet Potato

The vigorous growth of tuberous roots of rooted sweet potato leaves caused not only the rapid increase in photosynthetic rate but also a considerable increase in leaf area. The rooted leaves of sweet potato can be an ideal source-sink model system to study physiological and biochemical control mecha...
