Experiments with simulated swards of perennial ryegrass (Loliumperenne L.) grown in flowing nutrient solution with NO3- heldat 0.1 mg N I1 show that the rate of NO3- uptake wasrelated to diurnal, day-to-day, and seasonal changes in radiation.In summer the diurnal variation in NO3-uptake ranged from 25to 50 mg N m2 h1 and the day-to-day variationranged from 500 to 1500 mg N m2 d1. Mean dailyrates of uptake over 12 d periods in summer and in winter averaged908 and 44 mg N m2, respectively. The pattern of NO3-uptake followed that of CO2 flux with the maximum rate of theformer occurring 5 or 6 h after the maximum CO2 influx. Afterdefoliation, NO3- uptake was severely curtailed for 2 d concomitantwith a very small influx of CO2. Analysis of the changes thatoccurred in the rate of NO3- uptake immediately after the switchingon or off of artificial light suggests that two reversible processesmay be involved in the relation between NO3-uptake and radiation,one with a longer and the other with a shorter time constant. 相似文献

Nitrate provision has been found to regulate the capacity forChara corallina cells to take up nitrate. When nitrate was suppliedto N sufficient cells maximum nitrate uptake was reached after8 h. Prolonged treatment of the cells in the absence of N alsoresulted in the apparent ability of these cells to take up nitrate.Chlorate was found to substitute partially for nitrate in theinduction step. The effects on nitrate reductionwere separated from those on nitrate uptake by experiments usingtungstate. Tungstate pretreatment had no effect on NO3uptake induced by N starvation, but inhibitedNO3 uptake associated with NO3 pretreatment. Chloridepretreatment similarly had no effect on NO3 uptake inducedby N deprivation, but inhibited NO3 uptake followingNO3 pretreatment. The data suggest that there are atleast two mechanisms responsible for the inductionof nitrate uptake by Chara cells, one associated with NO3reduction and induced by CIO3 or NO3and one associated with N deprivation.

The processes of NO3 uptake and transport and the effectsof NH4+ or L-glutamate on these processes were investigatedwith excised non-mycorrhizal beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) roots.NO3 net uptake followed uniphasic Michaelis-Menten kineticsin a concentration range of 10µM to 1 mM with an apparentKm of 9.2 µM and a Vmax of 366 nmol g1 FW h1.NH4+, when present in excess to NO3, or 10 mM L-glutamateinhibited the net uptake of NO3 Apparently, part of NO3taken up was loaded into the xylem. Relative xylem loading ofNO3 ranged from 3.21.6 to 6.45.1% of NO3 netuptake. It was not affected by treatment with NH4+ or L-glutamate.16N/13N double labelling experiments showed that NO3efflux from roots increased with increasing influx of NO3and, therefore, declined if influx was reduced by NH4+ or L-glutamateexposure. From these results it is concluded that NO3net uptake by non-mycorrhizal beech roots is reduced by NH4+or L-glutamate at the level of influx and not at the level ofefflux.

The relationship between thef-ratio [NO3 uptake/(NO3+ NH4+) uptake] and ambient nitrate concentration was evaluatedfor eight data sets from coastal waters. The f-ratio increasedasymptotically with increase in nitrate concentration in mostdata sets. However, the rate at which f-ratio increased at lownitrate concentration (slope = m) and the maximum attained f-ratio(fmax) varied among regions; the initial slope varied most withvalues ranging in excess of an order of magnitude. The datawere analyzed in relation to environmental factors and methodologicalconsiderations known to influence the f-ratio. Ambient ammoniumconcentration was important in accounting for regional differencesin the f versus NO3 relationship. A further analysisof the data, relating f-ratio to the ratio of NO3/(NO3+ NH4+) concentrations yielded a much more regionally consistentand approximately linear relationship; slopes varied by lessthan a factor of two in the extreme cases. Inclusion of knownalternative (aside from NH4+) sources of reduced-N (e.g. urea)and correction for methodological/computational errors (isotopedilution) systematically reduce f-ratio estimates. Other factors,e.g. reduced-N uptake by microheterotrophs, may systematicallyincrease the f-ratio. 相似文献

Macduff, J. H., Hopper, M. J. and Wild, A. 1987. The effectof root temperature on growth and uptake of ammonium and nitrateby Brassica napus L. CV. Bien venu in flowing solution culture.II. Uptake from solutions containing NH4NO3.J. exp. Bot.38: 5366 The effects of root temperature on uptake and assimilation ofNH4+ and NO3 by oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. CV. Bienvenu) were examined. Plants were grown for 49 d in flowing nutrientsolution at pH 6?0 with root temperature decrementally reducedfrom 20?C to 5?C; and then exposed to different root temperatures(3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17 or 25?C) held constant for 14 d. Theair temperature was 20/15?C day/night and nitrogen was suppliedautomatically to maintain 10 mmol m3 NH4NO3 in solution.Total uptake of nitrogen over 14 d increased threefold between313?C but was constant above 13?C. Net uptake of NH4+exceeded that of NO3 at all temperatures except 17?C,and represented 4765% of the total uptake of nitrogen.Unit absorption rates of NH4+ and of 1?52?7 for NO3suggested that NO3 absorption was more sensitive thanNH4+ absorption to temperature. Rates of absorption were relativelystable at 3?C and 5?C compared with those at 17?C and 25?C whichincreased sharply after 10 d. Tissue concentration of N in theshoot, expressed on a fresh weight basis, was independent ofroot temperature throughout, but doubled between 325?Cwhen expressed on a dry weight basis. The apparent proportionof net uptake of NO3 that was assimilated was inverselyrelated to root temperature. The results are used to examinethe relation between unit absorption rate adn shoot:root ratioin the context of short and long term responses to change ofroot temperature Key words: Brassica napus, oilseed rape, root temperature, nitrogen uptake 相似文献

Acclimation of NO3 transport fluxes (influx, efflux)in roots of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Bien venu) andtheir sensitivity to growth at low root temperature was studiedin relation to external NO3 supply, defined by constantconcentrations ranging from sub- to supra-optimal with respectto plant growth rate. Plants were grown from seed in flowingnutrient solutions containing 250 mmol m3 NO3at 17°C for 20d, and solution temperature in half the cultureunits was then lowered decrementally over 3 d to 7°C. Threedays later plants were supplied with NO3 at 1, 10, 100or 1000 mmol m3 maintained for 18 d. Dry matter productionwas decreased more by low root zone temperature than low [NO3]e. Root specific growth rates were inversely related to [NO3]eand shoot:root ratios increased with time at [NO3]e between101000 mmol m3. Net uptake of NO3 at 17°Cwas twice that at 7°C, and at both temperatures it doubledwith increasing [NO3]e between 110 mmol m3with further small increases at higher [NO3]e. Mean unitabsorption rates of NO3 between 06 d and 614d were linearly related (r2 of 0.790.99) to log10[NO].Steady-state Q10 (717°C) for uptake between 06d were 0.91, 1.62, 1.27, and 1.10, respectively, at [NO3]eof 1, 10, 100, and 1000 mmol m3, compared with correspondingvalues of 0.98, 1.38, 1.68, and 1.89 between 614 d. Thedata indicated that net uptake rates at 7 and 17°C divergedover time at high [NO3]e. Short-term uptake rates from1 mol m3 NO3 measured at 17°C were higherin plants grown with roots at 7°C than at 17°C; for7°C plants there was a strong inverse linear relationship(r2=0.94) between uptake rate and treatment log10 [NO3]ewhilst rates in 17°C plants were independent of prior [NO3]e. Rates of NO3 influx and efflux under different steady-stateconditions of NO3 supply and root temperature were calculatedfrom dilution of 15N added to culture solutions. Efflux wassubstantial relative to net uptake in all treatments, and wasinversely related to [NO3]e at 17°C but not at 7°C.Ratios of influx: efflux ranged from 1.62.9 at 17°Cand 1.31.8 at 7°C, indicating the proportionatelygreater impact of efflux at low root temperature. Ratios ofefflux: net uptake were 0.531.56 at 17°C and 1.213.58at 7°C. The apparent sensitivities of influx and effluxto steady-state root temperature varied with [NO3]e.Both fluxes were higher at 17°C than 7°C in the presenceof 1001000 mmol m3 NO3 but the trend wasreversed at 110 mmol m3 NO. Concentrations oftotal N measured in xylem exudate were at least 2-fold higherat 7°C compared with 17°C, attributable mainly to higherconcentrations of NO3 glutamine and proline. The resultsare discussed in terms of acclimatory and other responses shownby the NO3 transport system under conditions of limitingNO3 supply and low root temperature.

The growth of four heathland species, two grasses (D. flexuosa,M. caerulea) and two dwarf shrubs (C. vulgaris, E. tetralix),was tested in solution culture at pH 4.0 with 2 mol m3N, varying the N03/NH4+ ratio up to 40% nitrate. In addition,measurements of NRA, plant chemical composition, and biomassallocation were carried out on a complete N03/NH4+ replacementseries up to 100% nitrate. With the exception of M. caerulea, the partial replacement ofNH4+ by NO3 tended to enhance the plant's growth ratewhen compared to NH4+ only. In contrast to the other species,D. flexuosa showed a very flexible response in biomass allocation:a gradual increase in the root weight ratio (RWR) with NO3increasing from 0 to 100%. In the presence of NH4+, grassesreduced nitrate in the shoot only; roots did not become involvedin the reduction of nitrate until zero ambient NH4+. The dwarfshrubs, being species that assimilate N exclusively in theirroots, displayed an enhanced root NRA in the presence of nitrate;in contrast to the steady increase with increasing NO3in Calluna roots, enzyme activity in Erica roots followed arather irregular pattern. Free nitrate accumulated in the tissuesof grasses only, and particularly in D. flexuosa. The relative uptake ratio for NO3 [(proportion of nitratein N uptake)/(proportion of nitrate in N supply)] was lowestin M. caerulea and highest in D. flexuosa. Whereas M. caeruleaand the dwarf shrubs always absorbed ammonium highly preferentially(relative uptake ratio for NO3 <0.20), D. flexuosashowed a strong preference for NO3 at low external nitrate(the relative uptake ratio for N03 reaching a value of2.0 at 10% NO3). The ecological significance of thisprominent high preference for NO3 at low NO3/NH4+ratio by D. flexuosa and its consequences for soil acidificationare briefly discussed.

According to the Dijkshoorn-Ben Zioni model, NO3 uptakein the roots is stimulated by NO3 assimilation in theshoots, through downward phloem transport of malate synthesizedin response to reduction of NO2 to NH3. In this paper,one hypothesis resulting from this model was tested, i.e. thatthe diurnal changes in NO3 uptake are due to the lightdependence of NO3 reduction in the leaves. This dependencewas studied in detached leaves transferred to deionized wateror supplied via the transpiration stream with similar amountsof 15NO3 in light or darkness. In the dark, the reductionof previously stored NO3 or xylem-borne 15NO3was generally about 4050% of that measured in the light.Glucose supply to the detached leaves stimulated NO3reduction in the dark, but not enough to increase it up to thesame rate as in the light. Nitrite reduction in detached leaveswas much less affected by darkness, and could be maintainedat a high level by exogenous supply of substrate. Advantagewas taken from this last observation to sustain NO2reductionin attached darkened shoots at the same rate as in the light,by ensuring an appropriate delivery of NO2 from the xylem.Although this was assumed to restore the light level of theassociated synthesis of malate, it led to a marked inhibitionof NO3 uptake. In addition, the direct supply of malateto the shoots or to the roots failed to prevent the decreaseof NO3 uptake in darkness. Thus, our conclusion is thatthe mechanisms evoked in the Dijkshoorn-Ben Zioni model do notplay an important role in the diurnal variations of NO3uptake in soybean plants.

Uptake capabilities for ammonium (NH4+) and urea by diatoms(Thalassiosira pseudonana and Skeletonema costatum) growingon oxidized forms of nitrogen were studied in short-term uptakeexperiments. Even when nutrient-saturated, an enhanced uptakecapability not coupled with the growth rate was present forNH4+ and urea. No such enhanced uptake ability was seen forNO2 or NO3 under either nutrient-saturated ornutrient-depleted conditions. The presence of NH4+ decreasedthe enhanced ability to take up urea, but the urea uptake ratein 5 min incubations remained greater than the growth rate evenwhen NH4+ was present. 相似文献

Two approaches to quantifying relationships between nutrientsupply and plant growth were compared with respect to growth,partitioning, uptake and assimilation of NO3 by non-nodulatedpea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Marma). Plants grown in flowing solutionculture were supplied with NO3 at relative addition rates(RAR) of 0·03, 0·06, 0·12, and 0·18d1, or constant external concentrations ([NO3)of 3, 10, 20, and 100 mmol m3 over 19 d. Following acclimation,relative growth rates (RGR)approached the corresponding RARbetween 0·030.12 d-1, although growth was notlimited by N supply at RAR =0.18 d-1. Growth rates showed littlechange with [NO3] between 10100 mmol m3(RGR=0·15 0·16 d-1). The absence of growthlimitation over this range was suggested by high unit absorptionrates of NO3, accumulation of NO3 in tissues andprogressive increases in shoot: root ratio. Rates of net uptakeof NO3 from 1 mol m3 solutions were assessed relativeto the growth-related requirement for NO3, showing thatthe relative uptake capacity increased with RGR between 0·030·06d1 , but decreased thereafter to a theoretical minimumvalue at RGR 相似文献

We have examined the long-term effects of NO3 concentrationson NO3 (15NO3) fluxes and cellular pool sizesin roots of intact 30-d-old wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Courtot)grown hydroponically. Compartmental analysis was performed understeady-state conditions at five different levels of NO3concentration (from 0.1 up to 5 mol m3 taking into accountmetabolism and secretion into the xylem (Devienne et al., 1994).Nitrate and reduced nitrogen levels in the tissues were largelyindependent of external NO3 concentration although below1.5 mol m3 NO3; concentration limited plant growth.In the chamber, marked diurnal variations in net uptake occurredand, in the light, higher NO3 concentrations yieldedhigher NO3 uptake rates. After transfer of the plantsto the laboratory, the increase in net uptake linked to elevationof NO3; concentrations was even larger (from 0.1 to 8.8µmolh1 g1 FW) as a result of a marked increase (x1011) in the unidirectional influx at the plasmalemmawhile NO3 efflux was less enhanced (x 45). Underthese conditions, influx into the vacuole was also higher (x24) while efflux from the vacuole was little affected(x 13). NO3 concentrations within the cell compartmentswere estimated under the clas sical assumptions. The vacuolarconcentration was a little modified by NO3 availabilitywhereas that in the cytosol increased from about 10 mol m3to about 20 mol m3 indicating that (1) the absolute valuefor the cytosol was high and (2) it displayed only a small increasedespite very large changes in NO3 fluxes. NO3distribution within the cells did not seem to involve an activeaccumulation of NO3 in the vacuole. Key words: Wheat, ion transport, nitrate, 15N, compartmentation 相似文献

The use of chlorate as an analogue for NO3 during nitrateuptake into Chara corallina cells has been investigated. NO3inhibits 36C1O3 influx into Chara over the concentrationrange 01000 mmol m3. Lineweaver-Burke plots ofthe data are characteristic of competitive inhibition by NO3in the low concentration range (0300 mmol m3 ClO3)and apparent KINO3 is 140 mmol m3 which is of a similarorder of magnitude as apparent KmCIO3- 180 mmol m3. Athigher substrate concentrations the inhibition by NO3was not characteristic of competitive or uncompetitive inhibition. 36C1O3/NO3 influx was dependent on K+ and Ca2+in the external medium and inhibited by FCCP. NO3 pretreatmentor N starvation increased subsequent 36C1O3/NO3influx into Chara. A comparison between rates of net NO3uptake and 36C1O3/NO3 influx supported the previoushypothesis that NO3 efflux is an important componentin the determination of overall uptake rates.

Tobacco shoots were grown in vitro for 35 d, in MS culture mediummodified to include various sources (nitrate-N, ammonium-N ora mixture) and levels (0120 mM) of N, and in the presenceof 0180 mM NaCI or iso-osmotic concentrations of mannitol.Growth of control plantlets was significantly inhibited whenNH4+-N was the sole N source, and at high (120 mM) NO3-N supply. Under conditions of salt stress (90 and 180 mM NaCI)growth was repressed, with roots being more severely affectedthan shoots. Salinity also inhibited root emergence in vitro.The only alleviation of the salt stress by nitrate nutritionobserved in this study was on shoot growth parameters of plantletsgrown on 60 mM NO3-N and 90 mM NaCI. Although both weresignificantly inhibited by NaCI, nitrate reduc-tase activitywas more severely affected than nitrate uptake. When mannitolreplaced NaCI in the culture medium, similar Inhibition of growth,nutrient uptake and enzyme activity were recorded. These observations,together with the relatively low recorded values for Na+ andCI uptake, indicate that under in vitro salt stress conditionsthe negative effects of NaCI are primarily osmotic.

Function and contribution of the root tip in the induction of NO3- uptake along the barley root axis
The seminal roots of N-free-grown barley seedlings were ableto take up NO3 immediately upon initial exposure; theuptake rate in the tip was half of that in the older root zones(middle and base). A lag of 60 min was required in all rootzones before the uptake rates started to increase during inductionwith external NO3. This increase could be prevented bythe addition of pFPA; we thus assume that additional NO3transport proteins were synthesized during NO3 induction.During the time-course of NO3 induction different uptakerates were measured in morphologically different regions ofthe tip (1 mm segments) indicating a regulation of NO3induction on a narrow local scale. In NO3 grown plants, NO3 uptake as well as NO3content increased basipetally along the root axis concomitantlywith increasing vacuolization of the cells. Although NO3uptake into the tip was only half of that into the older rootzones, this NO3 uptake was very important for the entireroot. Firstly, it provided the substrate for protein biosynthesisin the meristematic region: nitrate reductase activity and totalsoluble protein were highest in the first apical mm of the tip.Secondly, 3% of the NO3 taken up by the tip was foundin the base where it induced NO3 uptake: NO3 wastranslocated almost exclusively basipetally and as little as20nmolg1 root fr. wt. translocated from the tip weresufficient for acceleration of NO3 induction in the rootbase of N-free-grown plants. This clearly shows that the inductionof NO3 uptake does not depend exclusively on the availabilityof external NO3, but can be mediated also with internallytranslocated NO3.The root tip, therefore, may be consideredthe NO3 sensing region of the root.

Diel patterns in the uptake of nitrogenous nutrients were observedin the coastal plume of the Chesapeake Bay system, but the specificpatterns varied with season. During the winter months, ratesof NH4+ and urea uptake were significantly higher at night thanduring the day, and rates of NO3 uptake were higher duringthe day. During the summer, rates of NH4+ and urea uptake weresignificantly higher at night only during half the studies conducted;during the remaining studies, there was either no significantdifference or rates of uptake of NH4+ were higher during theday. Rates of NO3 uptake during the summer months werealso higher during the day than at night. Seasonal differenceswere also apparent in the time of day at which maximum observeduptake rates of each nitrogen nutrient occurred. During thewinter-spring months, maximum observed rates of NO3 uptakeoccurred between first light and noon, whereas during the summermonths, maximum observed uptake rates of NO3 occurredboth morning and afternoon, and consistently 916 h afterthe maximum observed peak in the uptake of reduced nitrogen.We interpret these findings in terms of seasonal shifts in nitrogennutritional status of the assemblages, as well as species-specificdifferences in the effect of a given stimulus (e.g. a nitrogenpulse at the mouth of the Bay) to entrain an uptake response,and we suggest that the extent of this variability must be understoodbefore generalizations about the use of f-ratios as characteristicsof specific populations or water masses can be drawn. 相似文献

We examined the effect of pretreatments (18 h at 5 µmoldm3) with abscisic acid, the ethylene-releasing substanceEthephon, gibberellic acid, indoleacetic acid,kinetin and zeatin on nitrate uptake and in vivo nitrate reductaseactivity (NRA) in roots of nitrogen-depleted Phaseolus vulgarisL. Nitrate uptake showed an apparent induction pattern witha steady state after about 6 h, in all treatments. The nitrateuptake rate after 6 h was unaffected or at most 30% lower aftertreatments with the plant growth regulators. Gibberellic acid, kinetin and zeatin induced substantial NRAin roots in the absence of nitrate, whereas Ethephon enhancedNRA only during nitrate nutrition. Kinetin-induced NRA (Ki-NRA)was maximal after a pretreatment at 1 µmol dm3,and showed a lag phase of 68 h. Ki-NRA was additive tonitrate-induced NRA (NO3-NRA) for at least 24 h, independentof the induction sequence. After full induction, Ki-NRA approximated20% of NO-3-NRA. Abscisic acid counteracted the developmentof Ki-NRA, but not of NO3-NRA. Cycloheximide and tungstatewere equally effective to suppress the development of nitratereductase activity after supply of kinetin or NO3. Our data are consistent with the operation of two independentenzyme fractions (Ki-NRA and NO3-NRA) with apparentlyidentical properties but with separate control mechanisms. Theabsence of major effects of plant growth regulators on the time-courseand rate of nitrate uptake suggests that exogenous regulators,and possibly endogenous phytohormones are of minor importancefor initial nitrate uptake. The differential effect of someregulators on nitrate uptake and root NRA furthermore indicatesthat the processes of uptake and reduction of NO3 arenot obligatory or exclusively coupled to each other. 相似文献

Diurnal regulation of NO-3 uptake in soybean plants IV. Dependence on current photosynthesis and sugar availability to the roots 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The short-term dependence of NO3 uptake upon photosynthesisand sugar supply to the roots of soybean plants was investigatedin a series of experiments where CO2 availability, light intensityor conduction of phloem sap to the roots were severely limited.Removal of CO2 from the atmosphere or girdling of the stem equallyprevented the stimulation of NO3 uptake when plants weretransferred from darkness to the light. The effect of thesetwo treatments can be reversed by CO2 re-supply or by additionof 10 mM glucose in the nutrient solution, respectively. Glucosewas also more effective in stimulating NO3 uptake byintact plants in darkness than in light. Collectively, theseobservations are interpreted as evidence that the diurnal changesin NO3 uptake are due to decreased phloem transport ofphotosynthates in darkness. Accordingly, the magnitude of thesechanges was much dependent on starch accumulation in the leavesat the end of the photo-period. Shading the plants lowered thisaccumulation, and resulted in an amplification of the diurnalchanges in NO3 uptake. These results are discussed inconnection with the hypothesis that the carbon-dependent plasticityof the night/day ratio of NO3 uptake is an importantfeature of the co-ordination of the acquisition of N and C bythe plant.

The effect of light on NO3 utilization was investigatedin non-nodulated soybean (Clycine max L. Merr., cv. Kingsoy)plants during a 14/10 h light/dark period at a constant temperatureof 26C. A 3050% decrease of net NO3 uptake ratewas observed 26 h after the lights were turned off. Thiswas specifically due to an inhibition of NO3 influx asmeasured by 15N incorporation during 5 min. The absolute valuesof NO3 efflux depended on whether the labelling protocolinvolved manipulation of the plants or not, but were not affectedby illumination of the shoots. Darkness had an even more markedeffect in lowering the reduction of 15NO3 in both rootsand shoots, as well as xylem transport of 15NO3 and reduced15N. Concurrently with this slowing down of transport and metabolicprocesses, accumulations of NO3 and Asn were significantlystimulated in roots during the dark period. These data are discussedin view of the hypothesis that darkness adversely affects NO3uptake through specific feedback control, in response to alterationsin the later steps of N utilization which are more directlydependent on light.

Nodulated white clover plants (Trifolium repens L. cv. Huia)were grown as simulated swards for 71 d in flowing nutrientsolutions with roots at 11 C and shoots at 20/15 C, day/night,under natural illumination. Root temperatures were then changedto 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 or 25 C and the total N2, fixation over21 d was measured in the absence of a supply mineral N. Alltreatments were subsequently supplied with 10 mmol m2NO2 in the flowing solutions for 14 d, and the relativeuptake of N by N2, fixation and NO3 uptake was compared.Net uptake of K+ was measured on a daily basis. Root temperature had little effect on root d. wt over the 35-dexperimental period, but shoot d. wt increased by a factor of3.5 between 3 and 25 C, with the sharpest increase occurringat 711 C. Shoot: root d. wt ratios increased from 25to 68 with increasing temperature at 725 C. N2-fixationper plant (in the absence of NO2 ) increased with roottemperature at 313C, but showed little change above13 C. The ratios of N2 fixation: NO2 uptake over 14d (mol N: mol N) were 0.470.77 at 37 C, 092154at 1117 C, and 046 at 25 C, reflecting the dominanceof NO3 uptake over N2 fixation at extremes of high andlow root temperature. The total uptake of N varied only slightlyat 1125 C (095110 mmol N plant1),the decline in N2 fixation as root temperature increased above11 C was compensated for by the increase in NO 3 uptake.The % N in shoot dry matter declined with decreasing root temperature,from 32% at 13 C to 15% at 3 C. In contrast, concentrationsof N expressed on a shoot water content basis showed a modestdecrease with increasing temperature, from 345 mol m3at 3 C to 290 mol m3 at 25 C.

Lamaze, T., Sentenac, H. and Grignon, C. 1987. Orthophosphaterelations of root: NO3effects on orthophosphate influx,accumulation and secretion into the xylem.J. exp. Bot.38: 923934. Orthophosphate (Pi) accumulation by barley (Hordeum vulgareL.) roots was specifically inhibited by NO3 as comparedto Cl and SO42 , and Pi secretion into the xylemwas stimulated. The inhibition of Pi accumulation by NO3was also observed in roots of intact photosynthesizing horsebean(Vicia faba L.), rice (Oryza sativa L.) and soybean (Glycinemax L.) plants. NO3 effects on Pi transport by rootswere more thoroughly investigated with corn (Zea mays L.). Theywere due to intracellular NO3. Pi secretion was stillstimulated by NO3 after Pi withdrawal from the absorptionsolution. 32Pi influx decreased during Pi accumulation, supportingthe hypothesis that this ion allosterically regulated its owntransport system by feedback control. This control was modulatedby other anions: the decrease was more pronounced in the presenceof nitrate. Chronologically, the depressive effect of NO3on 32Pi influx appeared after the inhibition of Pi accumulation.Furthermore, under conditions where Pi accumulation was notaffected by NO3, 32Pi influx and Pi secretion into thexylem became insensitive to the presence of nitrate. Our hypothesisis that the stimulative effect of NO3 on Pi secretionand the depressive one on 32Pi influx are the repercussionsof an increase in the Pi cytosolic concentration due to an NO3-induced decrease in Pi uptake by the vacuoles.
