Abstract
Starch transformation in relation to spring sap production has been investigated in six North European deciduous tree species from fall till the beginning of bud break in spring. The species examined were: Acer pseudoplatanus L., Betula pendula Roth, Alnus glutinosa Gärtn., Fagus sylvatica L., Quercus robur L., and Fraxinus excelsior L.
