| Abstract | The distribution of photosynthates in the body of vascular plants is examined by the methods of electron and confocal fluorescent microscopy in lifetime dynamics and using fixed preparations. It is shown that system relations of cells are provided by the “trophic tract,” i.e., endoplasmic membrane meshwork, which is induced by photosynthesis and moves along plasmodesmata from photosynthetic cells to meristematic cells consuming photosynthates. The structure and functions of the trophic tract are controlled by the actomyosin contractile apparatus of the cytoskeleton. Climatic cooling and aridization in the Neogene caused the loss of plasticity of the actomyosin complex, elimination of plasmodesmata, and fragmentation of the trophic tract, which were accompanied by partial transition of plants to the distribution of photosynthates through the apoplast. This caused the appearance in the Miocene of perennial and annual herbs, with the trophic tract composed of particular domains without plasmodesmal connections. In contrast to the continuous endoplasmic trophic tract of trees, the apoplastic tract of herbs is inefficient, since transdomain transport of sugar along the apoplast is connected with high energy consumption. However, it is free from the influence of cold temperatures and deficiency in water or mineral supply. The cost for phylogenetic adaptogenesis of vascular plants to the Neogene climatic cooling and aridization is a fourfold increase in genome size. The morphofunctional consequences are reduction of cell systems and life forms in connection with the energy problems induced by fragmentation of the trophic tract. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
