The below mentioned article provides a short note on reductase synthesis. Ammonia produced after nitrogen fixation is either immediately converted to organic nitrogen or to nitrate by nitrifying bacteria like Nitrosomonas in soil. The nitrates are then taken up by the plants and reduced to ammonia by a series of enzymes involving eight electrons transfer […]

Article Shared by
Several of the physiological processes in plants are directly affected by the radiant energy; and photosynthesis is one of them. In addition radiant energy is known to affect protoplasmic streaming, flower induction, chlorophyll synthesis, seed germination and even phototropism. The study of the reactions as affected by light is called photobiology. The sun is the […]
