Source-sink Relationships in Soybean
نویسنده
چکیده
It is interesting to know in details about the source-sink relationships in soybean. Here, it was tried to elaborate the source and sink concepts and the dependence to each other. It is important to know the relationships perspective to productivity of soybean. As the soybean yield is not high enough, it is of special interest. Changes in leaf photosynthesis with the variation of source and environmental changes had been discussed. Similarly, sink strength and its variations also been discussed. But, the complex nature of assimilate supply at different stages of growth and environment, translocation and remobilization of assimilates are not clearly understood especially when both source and sink may be limited i.e. co-limited.

The concept of source and sink strength is presently well-recognized and accepted by the scientific community as a pertinent approach describing the mechanisms of carbohydrate partitioning into the different and competing organs at a whole plant or canopy scales. Sink–source relationships have a clear role in the size of sink organs. Besides the effect on organ size, sink/source ratio might also...

Estimation of Osmotic Gradients in Soybean Sieve Tubes by Quantitative Autoradiography: Qualified Support for the MUnch Hypothesis.
An attempt was made to evaluate Münch's hypothesis of osmotically generated pressure flow in soybean (Glycine max L.) sieve tubes from velocity measurements and calculations of pressure potentials and sieve tube resistances. Pressure potential was estimated from values for water potentials and osmotic potential. Leaf water potential measurements were made by isopiestic thermocouple psychrometry...

Understanding variation in SW (seed weigh) is of major importance in understanding SY (seed yield) variation. The objective of this study was to determine factors such as SN (seed number) per unit area, SFD (seed filling duration) and SFR (seed filling rate) and temperature, LAI (leaf area index), LAD (leaf area duration), above-ground dry matter, CGR (crop growth rate), leaf dry matter re...
