Phloem loading: Sink/source vs. Productivity Symplast vs. apoplast pathways: distinguish at near the sieve element-companion cell complex s -1.3 MPa s -3.0 MPa or transfer cells apoplast: suc major selective transporter energy required: respiratory inhibitors, active loading Organic acids, hormones passive symplast: suc and others, such as raffinose and stachyose
Sucrose-H+ symporter in the apoplast of phloem loading in the membrane of company cells or sieve elements dissipate proton energy to couple the uptake of sucrose CC SE
Regulating sucrose loading by the sucrose-H+ symporter — are not completely clear The turgor pressure of the sieve elements below a threshold level, a compensatory increase loading? Sucrose concentration in the apoplast [Suc]apoplast? The available No. of symporter molecules feed Suc SUT1 transcription, SUT1 and itsmRNA rapidly degrade, protein phosphorylation involved a diurnal regulation Nutrient supply— potassium availability enhance sucrose efflux into apoplast sink growth

Phloem unloading and short-distance transport — via symplast or apoplast PCMB: inhibit sucrose across membrane
