Influence of continuous supply with a solution of glucose on the changes in the content of soluble sugars and proteins in various organs of the cut rose ( Rosa hybrida cv. Carina). Exogenous glucose continuously supplied to the cut rose is immediately converted into saccharose in the stem tissues. This saccharose migrates to the flower, where it is immediately hyd‐rolysed, and to the leaves where its hydrolysis occurs more slowly. The reducing sugars resulting from the hydrolysis of saccharose in the flower and, therefore, possibly from the hydrolysis of saccharose in leaves, induce a large accumulation of hexoses (glucose and fructose) in the flower. The protein content does not depend on the level of reducing sugars in the flower.
