Redox markers for drought-induced nodule senescence, a process occurring after drought-induced senescence of the lowest leaves in soybean (Glycine max)

TL;DR: It is concluded that stress-inducedsenescence in the lowest leaf ranks precedes nodule senescence, suggesting that leaves of low photosynthetic capacity are sacrificed in favour of nodule nitrogen metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal changes in ammonia assimilation in transformed tobacco plants expressing ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase mRNA in the antisense orientation

TL;DR: It is observed that the direction of the glutamate reaction varied during the day/night cycle such that a higher ratio of aminating/deaminating activity occurred in the first half of the light period, correlated with the decline in NH 4 + and 2-OG concentrations, which suggest that alternative metabolic pathways may be transiently activated during a day/ night cycle in plants with low Fd-GOGAT activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of constitutive expression of nitrate reductase in transgenic Nicotiana plumbaginifolia L. in response to varying nitrogen supply

TL;DR: It is concluded that the NR protein is specifically targetted for destruction under nitrogen deficiency, and constitutive expression of NR activity does not benefit the plant in terms of increased biomass production in conditions of limiting nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygen and reactive oxygen species-dependent regulation of plant growth and development.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of the PROTEOLYSIS 6 (PRT6) N-degron pathway in the regulation of plant growth, development, and differentiation is investigated.
