Highest Defoliation Tolerance in Amaranthus cruentus Plants at Panicle Development Is Associated With Sugar Starvation Responses

Highest Defoliation Tolerance in Amaranthus cruentus Plants at Panicle Development Is Associated With Sugar Starvation Responses

Defoliation tolerance (DT) in Amaranthus cruentus is known to reach its apex at the panicle emergence (PE) phase and to decline to minimal levels at flowering (FL). In this study, defoliation-induced changes were recorded in the content of non-structural carbohydrates and raffinose family oligosacch...
