Nitrogen (N) is an essential macronutrient that affects plant growth and development. N is an
important component of chlorophyll, amino acids, nucleic acids, and secondary metabolites …

Plant nitrate transporters were first identified and functionally characterized more than 20
years ago. They are encoded at least by four gene families, NRT1 (NPF), NRT2, CLC, and …

Nitrate is both an important nutrient and a signalling molecule for plants. Although several
components of the nitrate signalling pathway have been identified, their hierarchical …

The literature on nitrogen (N) form effects on plants at different stages of their development
has been critically reviewed, assessing the possible mechanisms of these effects. In …

In Arabidopsis the plasma membrane nitrate transceptor (transporter/receptor) NRT1. 1
governs many physiological and developmental responses to nitrate. Alongside facilitating …

Nitrogen is a key mineral nutrient playing a crucial role in plant growth and development.
Understanding the mechanisms of nitrate uptake from the soil and distribution through the …

Monocarpic senescence, characterized by whole-plant senescence following a single
flowering phase, is widespread in seed plants, particularly in crops, determining seed …

Nitrate acts as a potent signal to control global gene expression in A rabidopsis. Using an
integrative bioinformatics approach we identified TGA 1 and TGA 4 as putative regulatory …

Overexpression of the cytosolic enzyme glutamine synthetase 1 (GS1) has been
investigated in numerous cases with the goal of improving crop nitrogen use efficiency …

Nitrate is a major nitrogen resource for cereal crops; thus, understanding nitrate signaling in
cereal crops is valuable for engineering crops with improved nitrogen use efficiency …
