(A) Sucrose consumption rate α for growth of the sink (SAM or RAM). The unit for sucrose is μmolC6 g−1FW. (B) Time evolution of growth of the wild type (black) and the starchless pgm mutant (red) grown in a 12-h photoperiod. In (B), lines represent the sum of the simulated growth of the two sinks and circles represent the published growth data (Caspar et al., 1985).
