Figure 2

Nitrate content and nitrate reductase activity. Time course of the changes in nitrate content (A) and nitrate reductase activity (B) in roots (close circles and closed squares) and leaves (open triangle and open rhombuses) of Zea mays plants, previously grown for 17 days under nitrogen starvation (T0) and incubated for further 6, 30 and 54 h in the absence (closed squares and open rhombuses) or in the presence (closed circles and open triangles) of 10 mM NO3-. In roots and leaves of starved plants, both nitrate and NR activity were undetectable. Values are the mean ± SE of three independent biological samples analyzed in triplicate (n = 9).
