The mechanisms suppressing nitrate assimilation in plants under nitrogen-repleted condition are poorly known, but researchers may have made a breakthrough. They have recently studied the ...

Expression of Nitrate Assimilation Genes Depends on Nitrate and the Regulator NirA, But Not Completely on AreA As in other fungi (Cove, 1979; Dunn-Coleman et al., 1981; Crawford and Arst, 1993; ...

A soluble NADH-dependent nitrate reductase is described for the shoot system of Xanthium. Young leaves and immature stem tissues contain high levels of the enzyme. They are relatively rich in free ...

A new study suggests that photorespiration wastes little energy and instead enhances nitrate assimilation, the process that converts nitrate absorbed from the soil into protein. Share: FULL STORY ...

Introduction Nitrate (NO 3-) and ammonium (NH 4+) are the main resources of inorganic nitrogen (N 2) absorbed by the roots of higher plants. Assimilation of inorganic nitrogen present within the ...

Abstracts The distribution of in vivo nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1) activity (NRA) between leaves and roots was studied in young coffee plants (Coffea arabica L.) grown in pots with watered sand in a ...

For the first time, a field test has demonstrated that elevated levels of carbon dioxide inhibit plants’ assimilation of nitrate into proteins, indicating that the nutritional quality of food crops is ...
