source-sink-dynamics
Source-sink dynamics describes the movement of photosynthetically fixed carbon and other resources from productive 'source' tissues (such as mature leaves) to metabolically active or storage 'sink' tissues (such as roots, seeds, and developing organs). Understanding this balance is central to plant biology because it governs growth, yield, and how plants allocate resources under varying environmental conditions. Manipulating source-sink relationships is a key target in efforts to improve crop productivity and stress resilience.
