Suboptimal light conditions influence source-sink metabolism during flowering

Suboptimal light conditions influence source-sink metabolism during flowering

Reliance on carbohydrates during flower forcing was investigated in one early and one late flowering cultivar of azalea (Rhododendron simsii hybrids). Carbohydrate accumulation, invertase activity, and expression of a purported sucrose synthase gene (RsSUS) was monitored during flower forcing under...
