Qualitative and quantitative aspects of betalains biosynthesis in Amaranthus caudatus L. var. pendula seedlings.

abstract：:Symplastic transport occurs between neighbouring plant cells through functionally and structurally dynamic channels called plasmodesmata (PD). Relatively little is known about the composition of PD or the mechanisms that facilitate molecular transport into neighbouring cells. While transmission electron microscopy (TE...
