The pericarp of the dormant sugarbeet fruit acts as a storage reservoir for nitrate, ammonium and ฮฑ-amino-N. These N-reserves enable an autonomous development of the seedling for 8-10 d after imbibition. The nitrate content of the seed (1% of the whole fruit) probably induces nitrate-reductase activ
Ammonium markedly inhibited nitrate absorption by nitrogenstarved wheat seedlings but did not decrease the proportion of absorbed nitrate that was reduced. Seedlings high in nitrate (absorbed prior to the experimental periods) reduced similar amounts of this nitrate regardless of whether or not ammo
