Nitrogen topdressing timing modifies free amino acids profiles and storage protein gene expression in wheat grain

Abstract Background Nitrogen is one basic element of amino acids and grain protein in wheat. In field experiments, wheat plants were subjected to different timing of nitrogen topdressing treatments: at the stages of emergence of the top fifth leaf (TL5), top third leaf (TL3) and top first leaf (TL1)...
