Increasing nitrogen absorption and assimilation ability under mixed NO3− and NH4+ supply is a driver to promote growth of maize seedlings

Compared with sole nitrate (NO3−) or sole ammonium (NH4+) supply, mixed nitrogen (N) supply may promote growth of maize seedlings. Previous study suggested that mixed N supply not only increased photosynthesis rate, but also enhanced leaf growth by increasing auxin synthesis to build a large sink fo...
