The division of labour between the different organs of the higher plant requires that there shall be a constant movement of metabolic materials from point to point within the plant, to which the term Translocation is applied. The chief directions of translocation are : (a) from the leaves to actively growing parts, (b) from the leaves to Murage organs, and (c) from regions of storage to actively growing.
