In oilseed rape (Brassica napus) bzh dwarf plants have improved nitrogen (N) uptake, N-utilization and N-use efficiency compared to normal types. Is this due to their shoots, or do roots play a role?
Using a thermodynamic flow–force interpretation of nitrate uptake isotherms, Malagoli and Le Deunff develop a functional– structural model to predict N uptake in winter oilseed rape, Brassica napus. The structural...
Difficulties in linking the various regulations of nitrate transport acting at different levels of time and on different spatial scales have hindered the development of models for nitrogen uptake. Le Deunff and Malagoli...
