Source-sink Regulation

Source–Sink Regulation is a physiological control mechanism in plant biology that governs the allocation of photosynthates from source tissues, such as leaves, to sink tissues, such as growing shoots or roots, through dynamic modulation of transport pathways and metabolic demands.
