Time-resolved investigation of molecular components involved in the induction of NO3- high affinity transport system in maize roots

The induction, i.e. the rapid increase of nitrate (NO3-) uptake following the exposure of roots to the anion, was studied integrating physiological and molecular levels in maize roots. Responses to NO3- treatment were characterized in terms of changes in NO3- uptake rate and plasma membrane (PM) H+-...
