Carbohydrate Assay 2: Starch
Description
Starch is the major storage carbohydrate in higher plants and is of importance in the carbon economy of many organs, tissues and cell types in the plant. The starch is synthesised in the leaves directly from photosynthates during the day and is remobilised at night to support continued respiration, sustain metabolism, energy production and biosynthesis in the absence of photosynthesis (Geigenberger, 2011).
