Relations between Light Level, Sucrose Concentration, and Translocation of Carbon 11 in Zea mays Leaves

RESUMO
The mechanism of carbon transport in Zea mays leaves was investigated using carbon 11 which is a short lived (half-life 20.4 min) positronemitting isotope. The gamma radiation produced on annihilation allows in vivo or nondestructive measurement of the isotope and the short half-life allows many measurements of translocation to be made on the same leaf within the same day.
