Disruption of ureide degradation affects plant growth and development during and after transition from vegetative to reproductive stages

Abstract Background The ureides allantoin and allantoate are major metabolic intermediates of purine catabolism with high nitrogen-to-carbon ratios. Ureides play a key role in nitrogen utilization in ureide-type legumes, but their effects on growth and development in non-legume plants are poorly und...
