Other claims from this paper (4)
- Mechanism High-affinity nitrate acquisition in plant roots is governed by two feedback loops of opposite signs, termed the Incoherent FeedBack loop.
- Mechanism The positive feedback loop acting in the short term increases nitrate intake when roots are exposed to nitrate.
- Method / resource The proposed model fits the experimental data well.
- Method / resource The model is structurally stable for all possible parameters under some technical assumptions.
