TLDR
The results suggest that the temperature determines two separate events, the starch-maltose conversion and the synthesis of sucrose and its galactosides from the maltose moiety.

A method for routine measurements of total sugar and starch content in woody plant tissues.

TL;DR: A refined and shortened method suitable for the rapid measurement of total sugar and starch contents in woody plant tissues is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolomics of temperature stress

TL;DR: The prominent role of central carbohydrate metabolism seems to be a major feature of the reprogramming of the metabolome during temperature stress, and future metabolomic studies of plant temperature-stress responses should reveal additional metabolic pathways that have important functions in temperature- stress tolerance mechanisms.

Dynamics of non-structural carbohydrates in terrestrial plants: a global synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, a new global database was assembled to examine broad patterns of seasonal NSC variation across organs (leaves, stems, and belowground), plant functional types (coniferous, drought-deciduous angiosperms, winter deciduous, evergreen, and herbaceous) and biomes (boreal, temperate, Mediterranean, and tropical) under natural conditions.

Carbohydrate reserves, translocation, and storage in woody plant roots.

TL;DR: All of the perennial organs of a woody plant may serve a storage function, but the highest concentrations of carbohydrate reserves are usually found in root tissues, which play important and specific roles in supplying substrates for shoot respiration and growth, especially in woody species that flower and begin fruit development before substantial canopy development.

Carbohydrate reserves, translocation, and storage in woody plant roots

TL;DR: The root reserves change dramatically throughout the year, decreasing rapidly with budbreak and early vegetative and reproductive development, and then increasing late in the growing season, usually after cessation of vegetative growth and fruit maturation.

Responses of plants to environmental stresses

J. Levitt
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the responses of plants to environmental stresses and found that plants respond to environmental stress in response to various types of stressors, such as drought and flooding.

Sucrose transport into vacuoles isolated from barley mesophyll protoplasts

TL;DR: Rates of sucrose transfer across the tonoplast were even higher in vitro than in vivo indicating that the sucrose transport system had not suffered damage during isolation of the vacuoles.

Seasonal cytological changes in secondary phloem parenchyma cells in Robinia pseudoacacia in relation to cold hardiness

M. K. Pomeroy, +1 more
- 01 May 1971 - 
TL;DR: Electron microscopic studies of cytological changes in phloem parenchyma cells of the living bark of black locust indicate that seasonal augmentation in total protoplasm, including mitochondria, lipid bodies, and, particularly, membrane-bound vesicles derived from invaginations and folding of the plasmalemma are closely related to the seasonal cycle of frost resistance.
