In order to study the regulation of photosynthate import intothe ear of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Anza), a system wasdeveloped in which the flag leaf, the major source of photosynthatefor the ear, was provided with steady-state levels of 11C-CO2for periods of several hours each time. 11C is a short-livedisotope (1? c. 20?3 mm) whose breakdown products (followingpositron annihilation) include paired, high energy -rays (0?5MeV). Consequently, the movement of radioactive photosynthatethroughout the plant and into the ear could be studied in vivoduring multiple labelling sessions over the development of theear with detectors located at various positions around the plant.It was found that import into the ear was not constant in thelight during periods of rapid ear filling, even though flagleaf photosynthesis and export were constant. In more than 50%of all cases, import of 11C-photosynthate into the ear tookthe form of large, regular oscillations with period lengthson the order of 70 mm. Furthermore, oscillations 180? out-of-phasewith those in the ear were observed in portions of the stembelow the point of flag leaf insertion, suggesting that regulationof oscillation may involve shifting the direction of transportbetween ear and lower plant parts. Rhythms in photosynthateimport into the ear do not appear to be synchronized to immediatefluctuations in the environment, since oscillations detectedsimultaneously in neighbouring plants were not synchronizedand had different period lengths.
