Engineering nitrogen use efficiency with alanine aminotransferase (2007, background): “More recent studies on GS in pea, maize, and rice have used both correlative approaches (Hirel et al. 2005; Kichey et al. 2006) and gene knockout and overexpression studies to demonstrate the importance of this enzyme on growth, N accumulation and, in particular, grain filling (Tabuchi et al.”
The challenge of improving nitrogen use efficiency in crop plants: towards a more central role for genetic variability and quantitative genetics within integrated approaches. (2007, background): “…changes in the whole spectrum of proteins and genes under different N nutrition conditions (Gutiérrez et al., 2007) in different organs harvested at various periods of plant development to increase the potential value of the physio-agronomic indicators previously identified (Hirel et al., 2005a).”
