Synthesis and Accumulation of Nitrite in Soybean Nodules Supplied with Nitrate 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Nodulated soybean plants (Glycine max [L.] Merr) were grown in sand culture without combined N or with a continuous supply of nitrate in nutrient solution. Moderate nitrate concentration (30 milligrams N per liter) had little effect on nodule weight/plant while high nitrate concentration (100 milligrams N per liter) depressed nodule weight/plant by 70 to 80% with harvests 30 to 60 days after planting and initiation of nitrate treatments.
