HORMONAL CONTROL OF ASSIMILATE PARTITIONING - REGULATION AT THE SOURCE1 |
| Author: | J. Daie |
| Abstract:
Assimilate partitioning and its various components are subject to hormonal regulation. The control may be exerted at the biochemical level (fast responses) or at the gene level (slow responses). Alterations in ion transport and/or activation of H+ translocating ATPases are examples of fast responses. However, at the gene level, developmentally and metabolically related alterations in hormone levels and/or compartmentation can lead to changes in gene expression and protein synthesis, resulting in specific modification in overall assimilate allocation. | |
