Regulation of the Accumulation and Reduction of Nitrate by Nitrogen and Carbon Metabolites in Maize Seedlings.

abstract：:Plants of a single genotype of wild strawberry, Fragaria virginiana Duchesne, were grown with or without fertilizer in high (406 microeinsteins per square meter per second) and low (80 microeinsteins per square meter per second) light. High-light leaves were thicker than low-light leaves and had greater development of...
