Symplasmic pathway in phloem loading and unloading in source and sink leaves of Zea mays L. as evidenced under normal and elevated CO₂ conditions

Zea mays plants kept at ambient (ca 375ppm) and elevated CO₂ (ca 650 to 700ppm) were used to examine the possibility of a symplasmic loading, unloading and transport pathway in dark-adapted and illuminated (200μmolm⁻²sec⁻¹ ) sink and source leaves. 5,6-carboxyfluorescein diacetate was introduced int...
