Title

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect At 0.01 mM salicylic acid, total nitrogen in the maize embryonic axis was substantially higher than control.
- Intervention effect High salicylic acid concentration decreased organic nitrogen accumulation.
- Intervention effect Low salicylic acid concentrations increased root nitrate reductase activity in vivo.
- Intervention effect High salicylic acid concentrations inhibited root nitrate reductase activity in vivo.
- Intervention effect The stimulatory acid concentration had no effect on in vitro enzyme loss.
- Mechanism The authors suggest salicylic acid increases in vivo enzyme activity partly by protecting against natural inactivation.
