Molecular, functional and ultrastructural characterisation of plastids from six species of the parasitic flowering plant genus Cuscuta.

abstract：:Sucrose is taken up and accumulated by cotyledons of Ricinus communis L. Autoradiographic studies reveal a predominant accumulation of sucrose in the phloem of the cotyledons. The export of sucrose from the cotyledons to hypocotyl and roots proceeds in the phloem by mass flow. These results, taken together with previo...
