Inhibition of Glutamine Synthetase by Phosphinothricin Leads to Transcriptome Reprograming in Root Nodules of Medicago truncatula
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a vital enzyme for the assimilation of ammonia into amino acids in higher plants. In legumes, GS plays a crucial role in the assimilation of the ammonium released by nitrogen-fixing bacteria in root nodules, constituting an important metabolic knob controlling the nitrog...
