Effects of water deficit on the activity of nitrate reductase and content of sugars, nitrate and free amino acids in the leaves and roots of sunflower and white lupin plants growing under two nutrient supply regimes

The effects of a two weeks soil drying period on the activity of nitrate reductase (NR; EC 1.6.6.6) were studied on Helianthus annuus L. and non-nodulated Lupinus albus L. plants, growing under two nutrient supply regimes.
