Fluxes, compartmentation and metabolism of nitrate and ammonium in spruce roots

Techniques of compartmental analysis and kinetic flux analysis with the radiotracer ¹³N were employed to examine the uptake, compartmentation, and metabolism of NO₃⁻ and NH₄⁺ in roots of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss.). Efflux analysis, conducted over 22-min periods, resolved the exchange...
