Abstract
Abstract Arginine is widespread in the plant kingdom, sometimes accumulated in high concentrations. Information on the accumulation of arginine has been obtained with ammonium-excess rice plants (9), potassium-deficient rice plants (8), phosphorus-deficient mulberry leaves (4), and loblolly pines grown with urea (14). The amount of arginine in plants varies widely. In young apple trees arginine is the most important compound to store nitrogen. However it is reduced when new growth occurrs (13). Vernalized wheat loses its arginine content, a major constituent of the soluble amino acid content of untreated wheat (18). On germination, beans decreases the amount of arginine (1). In tulips the nitrogen economy revolves around arginine (20).
