Why are non-photosynthetic tissues generally 13C enriched compared with leaves in C3 plants? Review and synthesis of current hypotheses
LA Cernusak, G Tcherkez, C Keitel… - Functional Plant …, 2009 - CSIRO Publishing
Non-photosynthetic, or heterotrophic, tissues in C3 plants tend to be enriched in 13C
