Acquisition and assimilation of nitrogen as peptide-bound and D-enantiomers of amino acids by wheat.

Acquisition and assimilation of nitrogen as peptide-bound and D-enantiomers of amino acids by wheat.

Nitrogen is a key regulator of primary productivity in many terrestrial ecosystems. Historically, only inorganic N (NH(4)(+) and NO(3)(-)) and L-amino acids have been considered to be important to the N nutrition of terrestrial plants. However, amino acids are also present in soil as small peptides...
