Ammonia (ammonium ion under physiological conditions) is one of the key nitrogen sources
in cellular amino acid biosynthesis. It is continuously produced in living organisms by a …

Ammonium sensitivity of plants is a worldwide problem, constraining crop production.
Prolonged application of ammonium as the sole nitrogen source may result in physiological …

Ammonium sensitivity is considered a globally stressful condition that affects overall crop
productivity. The major toxic symptom associated with ammonium nutrition is growth …

Ammonium is a major inorganic nitrogen source for plants. At low external supplies,
ammonium promotes plant growth, while at high external supplies it causes toxicity …

When ammonium is the sole nitrogen (N) source, plant growth is suppressed compared with
the situation where nitrate is the N source. This is commonly referred to as ammonium …

Ammonium nutrition often represents an important growth-limiting stress in plants. Some of
the symptoms that plants present under ammonium nutrition have been associated with pH …

Ammonium is an important source of nitrogen for plants. It is taken up by plant cells via
ammonium transporters in the plasma membrane and distributed to intracellular …

Plants use nitrate, ammonium, and organic nitrogen in the soil as nitrogen sources. Since
the elevated CO2 environment predicted for the near future will reduce nitrate utilization by …

The wide range of plant responses to ammonium nutrition can be used to study the way
ammonium interferes with plant metabolism and to assess some characteristics related with …

Ammonium transporter (AMT)-mediated acquisition of ammonium nitrogen from soils is
essential for the nitrogen demand of plants, especially for those plants growing in flooded or …
