Abstract
The mobilization of the stored reserves in the storage organs invariably commences after radicle elongation; i.e., it is a postgerminative event. In the growing regions (i.e., axis) some mobilization can occur before germination is completed; here the reserves are generally present in minor amounts, although the products of their hydrolysis might be important for early seedling establishment.
