DIEL PATTERNS OF CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM IN LEAF BLADES AND LEAF SHEATHS OF POA ANNUA L. AND POA× JEMTLANDICA(ALMQ.) RICHT.
S ummary A study was made of diel changes in carbohydrate content, net gas exchange and export from leaf blades and leaf sheaths in Poa annua L. (a ruderal) and Poa × jemtlandica (Almq.) Richt. (a sub‐arctic grass). Sucrose was the most abundant form of carbohydrate in the leaf blades with lesser am...
