Abstract: Carbohydrates such as fructans are naturally derived molecules that can be implemented in priming or defence stimulation, providing new strategies for crop protection against biotic stress. Chicory is a model plant for fructan research and… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract In ripening grape (Vitis sp.) berries, the combination of rapid sugar import, apoplastic phloem unloading, and water discharge via the xylem creates a potential risk for apoplastic sugar to be lost from the berries.… read more here.
