Development of Enzymes Involved in Photosynthetic Carbon Assimilation in Greening Seedlings of Maize (Zea mays).

abstract：:The effect of applied nitrogen (N) on the growth, leaf expansion rate, biomass partitioning and leaf N levels of Chenopodium album (C(3)) and Amaranthus retroflexus (C(4)) were investigated. At a given applied N level, C. album had 50% greater leaf N per unit area (N(a)) than A. retroflexus. Nitrate accumulated at low...
