“…Plants have evolved several NO 3 − uptake systems to survive in the changing environment. While low affinity transporters are responsible for the uptake of a large amount of nitrate in the case of available high concentrations, high affinity transporters ensure plant survival in the presence of low nitrate concentrations [ 29 ]. Acquisition of ammonium from the aquatic environment is important, as this N source for plants may be the dominating form under certain conditions.…”

In order to produce protein-rich duckweed for human and animal consumption, a stable cultivation process, including an optimal nutrient supply for each species, must be implemented. Modified nutrient media, based on the N-medium for duckweed cultivation, were tested on the relative growth rate (RGR) and crude protein content (CPC) of Lemna minor and Wolffiella hyalina, as well as the decrease of nitrate-N and ammonium-N in the media. Five different nitrate-N to ammonium-N molar ratios were diluted to 10% and 50% of the original N-medium concentration. The media mainly consisted of agricultural fertilizers. A ratio of 75% nitrate-N and 25% ammonium-N, with a dilution of 50%, yielded the best results for both species. Based on the dry weight (DW), L. minor achieved a RGR of 0.23 ± 0.009 d−1 and a CPC of 37.8 ± 0.42%, while W. hyalina’s maximum RGR was 0.22 ± 0.017 d−1, with a CPC of 43.9 ± 0.34%. The relative protein yield per week and m2 was highest at this ratio and dilution, as well as the ammonium-N decrease in the corresponding medium. These results could be implemented in duckweed research and applications if a high protein content or protein yield is the aim.

“…Transport of nitrate, the main nitrogen source for plants, from the soil into root cells involves the activity of several specific membrane transporters ( Miller et al , 2007 ). Nitrate is stored in the vacuole or further processed into ammonium and amino acids followed by translocation via xylem and phloem tissues to aboveground sink organs ( Islam et al , 2022 ). Transmembrane nitrate and peptide transporters in plants are divided into three families: the ATP-BINDING CASSETTE (ABC) superfamily ( Kang et al ., 2011 ), the NITRATE TRANSPORTER/PEPTIDE TRANSPORTER (NTR/PTR) family ( Rentsch et al ., 2007 ), and the OLIGOPEPTIDE TRANSPORTER (OPT) family ( Lubkowitz, 2011 ).…”

Plant defense responses to the soil-borne fungus Verticillium longisporum causing stem stripe disease on oilseed rape (Brassica napus) are poorly understood. In this study, a population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) using the Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Sei-0 and Can-0 was established. Composite interval mapping, transcriptome data and T-DNA mutant screening identified the NITRATE/PEPTIDE TRANSPORTER FAMILY 5.12 gene (AtNPF5.12) as being associated with disease susceptibility in Can-0. Coimmunoprecipitation revealed interaction between AtNPF5.12 and the MAJOR LATEX PROTEIN family member AtMLP6, and fluorescence microscopy confirmed interaction in the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. CRISPR/Cas9 technology was applied to mutate the NPF5.12 and MLP6 genes in B. napus. Elevated fungal growth in the npf5.12 mlp6 double mutant of both oilseed rape and Arabidopsis demonstrated their importance in defense against V. longisporum. Colonization of this fungus depends also on available nitrates in the host root. Accordingly, the negative effect of nitrate depletion on fungal growth was less pronounced in Atnpf5.12 plants with impaired nitrate transport. In addition, suberin staining revealed involvement of the NPF5.12 and MLP6 genes in suberin barrier formation. Together, these results demonstrate a dependency of multiple plant factors that lead to successful V. longisporum root infection.
