-A winter wheat (cv Soissons) crop was made N deficient during stem elongation. The effects of the N stress were quantified by measuring the nitrogen nutrition index (NNI) (used as reference), proteolytic activity in the leaves, the rate of carbon dioxide (CO 2 )
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
