The interaction between ammonium and nitrate uptake in phytoplankton
A basic tenet of nitrogen utilization in phytoplankton is that ammoniuln inhibits nitrate uptake. Consequently, it is generally believed that little or no nitrate uptake occurs at ammonium concentrations above ca 1 yM. A thorough review of field studies shows that the reduction of nitrate uptake rate in the presence of ammonium is rarely so severe, and that it is a highly variable phenomenon. T...
متن کاملRegulation of Nitrate Uptake in Penicillium chrysogenum by Ammonium Ion.
A nitrate uptake system is induced (along with nitrate reductase) when NH(4) (+)-grown Penicillium chrysogenum is incubated with inorganic nitrate in synthetic medium in the absence of NH(4) (+). Nitrate uptake and nitrate reduction are probably in steady state in fully induced mycelium, but the ratios of the two activities are not constant during the induction period. Substrate concentrations ...
متن کاملDeliquescence, Efflorescence, and Water Activity in Ammonium Nitrate and Mixed Ammonium Nitrate/Succinic Acid Microparticles
We have investigated the thermodynamics and kinetics of ammonium nitrate/water and mixed ammonium nitrate/succinic acid/water microparticles. The water activity of ammonium nitrate microparticles is determined as a function of composition down to 12% relative humidity by accounting for the rapid evaporation of ammonia and nitric acid. Both the observed deliquescence and water activities for amm...
متن کاملPeptide alcohols as promoters of nitrate and ammonium ion uptake in plants.
Several aryl-carbamoyl dipeptide alcohols increased the uptake of nitrate and ammonium ions into corn root segments by up to 50% and 90%, respectively. The most effective one was N-carbobenzoxy-l-prolyl-l-valinol. Foliar application of this compound to underfertilized corn plants caused an increase in the rate of plant growth in the greenhouse and provided modest (6-10%) corn yield increases in...
متن کاملProvision of nitrogen as ammonium rather than nitrate increases silicon uptake in sugarcane
Silicon (Si) is important in mitigating abiotic and biotic plant stresses, yet many agricultural soils, such as those of the rainfed production areas of the South African sugar industry, are deficient in plant-available Si, making Si supplementation necessary. However, Si uptake by sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) is limited even where silicate amendments improve soil Si status. Rhizosphere p...
