The capability to utilize different forms of nitrogen (N) by sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), rice (Oryza sativa), maize (Zea mays), and pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) was determined in pot experiments. [] Key Method Seedlings were grown for 21 d without N, or with 500 mg N kg(-1) soil applied as ammonium nitrate, rice bran or a mixture of rice bran and straw. No treatment-dependent changes of root length, surface area, and fractal dimension were observed. Shoot growth and N uptake in maize and pearl millet…

Effects of Nitrogen Forms on Carbon and Nitrogen Accumulation in Tomato Seedling
Differential Responses of Soybean and Sorghum Growth, Nitrogen Uptake, and Microbial Metabolism in the Rhizosphere to Cattle Manure Application: A Rhizobox Study.
TLDR
The results are first to present the evidence that sorghum may possess a high capacity for taking up amino acids as a consequence of organic matter application, and microbial metabolism.
Influence of inorganic and organic nitrogen on enzymes of nitrogen assimilation and growth in tomato seedlings
Summary Recent evidence suggests that agricultural and horticultural crops may be able to take up significant quantities of dissolved organic nitrogen (DON). Our aims were to determine the effects of…
Nitrogen and carbon contents, nitrogen use efficiency, and antioxidant responses of perennial ryegrass accessions to nitrogen deficiency
Abstract The study was designed to investigate nitrogen and carbon contents, nitrogen use efficiency, and antioxidants of a tolerant accession PI231578 (TOL) and a susceptible PI306292 (SUS) of…
Sweet pearl millet and sweet sorghum have high nitrogen uptake efficiency under cool and wet climate
TLDR
The results confirm that sweet pearl millet and sweet sorghum are highly efficient at recovering fertilizer N and, with adequate residue management, may represent a low environmental risk.
Different characteristics of nitrogen utilization between lupin and soybean: can lupin utilize organic nitrogen in soils?
TLDR
The rate of glycine uptake by excised roots was determined in a hydroponic experiment to investigate the ability of lupin and soybean to directly utilize amino acids.
Phosphate buffer-extractable organic nitrogen as an index of soil-N availability for sorghum and pearl millet
The availability of soil nitrogen (N) is usually quantified by the amount of mineralized N as determined after several weeks of soil incubation. Various alternative methods using chemical solvents…
Organic Nitrogen Uptake and Assimilation in Cucumis sativus Using Position-Specific Labeling and Compound-Specific Isotope Analysis
TLDR
Combining the use of isotopologues of amino acids with compound-specific isotope analysis helps reduce the bias in the assessment of organic N uptake and improves the understanding oforganic N assimilation especially in the context of organic horticulture.
Significance of Plant-induced Solubilization of Soil Nitrogen: A Case of Komatsuna Plants Grown in Fertilized Soils
TLDR
For komatsuna grown in fertilized soil, the depletion of soluble N in the root zone seems to be important for the increase in the contribution of the plant-induced solubilization to uptake but not for the occurrence of the solubILization.
Root Traits and Carbon Input in Field-Grown Sweet Pearl Millet, Sweet Sorghum, and Grain Corn
TLDR
The aims of this study were to characterize and compare root biomass and root traits of field-grown sweet pearl millet, sweet sorghum, and grain corn, and to estimate their annual C input to soil.

Abstract Growth responses of rice (Oryza sativa), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), and maize (Zea mays) to applications of the organic form of nitrogen (N) were examined…
UPTAKE OF ORGANIC NITROGEN IN THE FIELD BY FOUR AGRICULTURALLY IMPORTANT PLANT SPECIES
TLDR
It is shown that regressions of plots of excess 13C against excess 15N showed that a minimum of 19–23% of the glycine-derived N was taken up as intact amino acid; possible losses of labeled C atoms of glycine during its metabolism in the plants implies that these estimates are conservative.

Effect of nitrogen supply and defoliation on loss of organic compounds from roots of Festuca rubra.
TLDR
The effects of N-supply and defoliation on rhizodeposition are of importance in understanding interactions between plant and microbial productivity in grazed grasslands, and in interpretation of concurrent effects on microbially driven nutrient cycling processes in these systems.

TLDR
The plant parameters as varied in the experimental treatments were related to the N concentrations (% fresh weight), and most relationships were linear.

TLDR
The morphology of corn (Zea mays L.) root systems is described using fractal analysis and also to determine if a root's fractal dimension (D) is altered by N stress.
