What is Understanding Plant Translocation Processes about?

Translocation is the active movement of organic compounds like sucrose from where they are produced (sources) to where they are needed (sinks). There are two routes for phloem loading - the apoplast route where assimilates move through cell walls by diffusion, and the symplast route where they move passively through the cytoplasm. In both routes, active transport is used to increase the sucrose concentration which creates pressure for long-distance transport of sugars via the phloem. Translocation provides
