Abstract: | Pure phloem sap of tomato leaves was collected by stylectomy.Glutamine and glutamate were the predominant free amino acidstranslocated by the phloem stream. In developing fruits glutaminecontent increased significantly, reaching 35% of the total freeamino acids. Comparison in the amino acid composition betweenthe two tissues are discussed.
