Analysis of nitrate reductase mRNA expression and nitrate reductase activity in response to nitrogen supply
Nitrate is one of the major sources of nitrogen for the growth of plants. It is taken up by plant roots and transported to the leaves where it is reduced to nitrite in the. The main objective of this research was to investigate stimulatory effects of sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate, ammonia and urea on the production/generation of the nitrate reductase mRNA in Triticum aestivum plants. The pl...
متن کاملNitrate effects on nitrate reductase activity and nitrite reductase mRNA levels in maize suspension cultures.
Nitrate reductase (NR) activity and nitrite reductase (NiR) mRNA levels were monitored in Black Mexican Sweet maize (Zea mays L.) suspension cultures after the addition of nitrate. Maximal induction occurred with 20 millimolar nitrate and within 2 hours. Both NR and NiR mRNA were transiently induced with levels decreasing after the 2 hours despite the continued presence of nitrate in the medium...
متن کاملInheritance of Nitrate Reductase Activity
-Since the F1 hybrid (B14 X Oh43) had been shown to have a higher (heterotic) level of nitrate reductase activity than either inbred parent (B14 or Oh43), studies were undertaken to determine the mode of inheritance. Standard methods for determining MNendelian inheritance were used to study segregation for level of nitrate reductase activity of individual plants. The genetic material used was t...
متن کاملViscosity effects on eukaryotic nitrate reductase activity.
Rate-limiting processes of catalysis by eukaryotic molybdenum-containing nitrate reductase (NaR, EC 1.7.1.1-3) were investigated using two viscosogens (glycerol and sucrose) and observing their impact on NAD(P)H:NaR activity of corn leaf NaR and recombinant Arabidopsis and yeast NaR. Holo-NaR has two "hinge" sequences between stably folded regions housing its internal electron carriers: 1) Hing...
متن کاملNitrate Reductase in Barley Roots under Sterile, Low Oxygen Conditions.
Levels of nitrate reductase activity (EC 1.9.6.1.) as high as 11 mumoles nitrite produced/hour gram fresh weight were found in barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Compana) roots grown under low oxygen conditions. Roots of plants given identical treatment under sterile conditions did not develop the high levels of nitrate reductase activity. The results suggest that the buildup of particulate, reduced v...
