Photosynthesis (/ˌfoʊtəˈsɪnθəsɪs/ FOH-tə-SINTH-ə-sis) is a
system of
biological processes by
which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae...

Photosynthate partitioning is the
deferential distribution of
photosynthates to
plant tissues. A
photosynthate is the
resulting product of photosynthesis...
- inter-plant
transfer of
nutrients may
occur via
mycorrhizal networks, with
photosynthates moving from a 'donor'
plant to a 'recipient' plant.
Numerous studies...

photosynthate to
produce energy to
sustain respiration over this period, an
amount estimated to be
about 10% of the
total annual photosynthate production...
-
causing the
development of root-knot
galls that
drain the plant's
photosynthate and nutrients.
Infection of

dependent on
gametophytes for
supply of
water and
mineral nutrients and
photosynthate, the
products of photosynthesis. Non-vascular
plants play
crucial roles...
- end-plates
between known as
sieve plates,
which allow transport of
photosynthate between the
sieve elements. The
sieve tube
elements lack
nuclei and...
- the
soluble organic compounds made
during photosynthesis and
known as
photosynthates, in
particular the
sugar sucrose, to the rest of the plant. This transport...

other organisms. In
these symbioses, the
algae supply photosynthates (organic substances) to the host
organism providing protection to the...
- Euglena. The
euglenoids have
chlorophylls a and b and they
store their photosynthate in an
unusual form
called paramylon starch, a β-1,3
polymer of glucose...
