When 16-d-old plants of Pisum sativum, grown in a 12-h photoperiod, were transferred to continuous illumination, the starch content of the leaves rose steadily for 20 h but then declined appreciably. Plants of the same age, grown in an 18-h photoperiod, were, after 9 h light, exposed to 14CO2 in the
## Abstract Most of the phosphorus of potato starch fractions is bound to the starch and is not split off when the starch is precipitated from solution by alcohol. The potato starch amylopectin contains much more phosphorus in the form of bound esterified phosphate groups than the corresponding amy
