Elevated CO2 has been reported to stimulate plant growth under nitrogen-sufficient conditions, but the effects of CO2 on growth in a constantly nitrogen-limited state, which is relevant to most natural habitats of plants, remain unclear. Here, we maintained Arabidopsis seedlings under such conditions by growing a mutant with reduced nitrate uptake activity on a medium containing nitrate as the ...

Organic nitrogen (ON) is the most common form of nitrogen in the soil. If this form is the most abundant then many new questions must be addressed in order to fully understand the breakdown of ON such as what organisms are incorporating the nitrogen, the rate of uptake and the effect of concentration on uptake rate. Many measurements have been made regarding the uptake rate of amino acid in soi...

in order to examine the effect of the quantity of nitrogen fertilizer and bush density on vegetative and productive function of henna medicinal plant (lawsonia inermis)  factorial experimentation in the form of block plan was carried in three stages in agriculture research center in south of kerman  province in corp of 2012. the first factor containing nitrogen fertilizer in 4 levels including ...

abstract in order to study the effect of density and time of nitrogen application on morphological, phenological characteristics, yield and yield components of black cumin (nigella sativa l) a field experiment was conducted at chenaran in khorasan razavi province in 2005 growing season. three nitrogen fertilizer (urea) application times (1- control 2- at 4-6 leaves stage 3-preblooming 4-complet...

in the present study, the root vigor and kinetic characteristics of nitrogen absorption in potato cultivars was investigated through sand cultivation and pot tests with nutrient solution. four cultivars of potatoes, namely, feiwuruita, yunshu301, liangshu97, and chuanyu56 were grown in nutrient solution matrix cultures. the result showed that: (1) nitrogen uptake rates differed significantly am...
