Abstract
The effect of growth retarding amino acids (L-aspartic acid,L-leucine,L-methionine, andL-threonine) on nitrate reductase (NO3R), nitrite reductase (NO2R), and NADH2 dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) in excised pea roots was followed,L-methionine andL-threonine slightly depressed NO3R activity,L-aspartic acid enhanced NO2R and GDH activities.L-methionine andL-threonine also slightly decreased nitrate uptake. The results obtained are discussed in connection with the growth effects of the amino acids investigated.
