Abstract
After growth for 26 d in water, rice seedlings were transferred to a m edium containing 1 mM NH4Cl. The mRNA for NADH-glutamate synthase was markedly increased in the roots within 3 h. Methionine sulfoximine com pletely inhibited this accumulation, suggesting that NH4+ is not a dir ect inducer of this process.
