Synopsis The distribution of photosynthetically fixed C 14 O 2 among 14 metabolites of tomato plants (watered normally) was compared with th t from plants which were flooded. The flooding treatments produced marked changes in the percent of C 14 label found as glucose, fructose, sucrose, malic acid, citric acid, gamma amino butyric acid, and the lipid fraction.
