Effects of Nodulation on Metabolite Concentrations in Xylem Sap and in the Organs of Soybean Plants Supplied with Different N Forms [PDF]
The effects of nodulation on N metabolism in soybean plants supplied with various forms of N are not fully understood. Ureides are the principal forms of N transported from nodules, but nitrate and asparagine are the primary N compounds transported from ...

Metagenomic and metabolomic analyses reveal the role of gut microbiome-associated metabolites in diarrhea calves [PDF]
Calf diarrhea is a multifactorial disease that affects the cattle industry and accounts for more than 50% of calf mortality. Although there is evidence of an association between altered gut microbiota and diarrhea, remarkably little is known about the ...

Allantoate Amidohydrolase OsAAH is Essential for Preharvest Sprouting Resistance in Rice [PDF]
Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is an undesirable trait that decreases yield and quality in rice production. Understanding the genes and regulatory mechanisms underlying PHS is of great significance for breeding PHS-resistant rice.

Diurnal Changes in the Transport Rates of Ureides, Amides, Cations, Anions, and Organic Acids Estimated by Xylem Sap Exudate and the Water Flow Rate of Soybean Plants [PDF]
Ureides; allantoate, allantoin, and amides; asparagine, and glutamine are the N2 fixation products in soybean root nodules, and they are transported through xylem vessels.

Determination of Ureides Content in Plant Tissues [PDF]
The ureides allantoin and allantoate are the main organic nitrogen compounds transported in several legumes, predominantly from N2 fixation. Moreover, recent studies point out a remarkable role for allantoin during several stress responses of plants ...

Mechanistic Insight of Allantoin in Protecting Tomato Plants Against Ultraviolet C Stress [PDF]
Allantoin ((AT) a purine metabolite)-mediated ultraviolet C (UVC) stress mitigation has not been studied to date. Here, we reported the physicochemical mechanisms of UVC-induced stress in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants, including an AT-directed ...

Nitrogen Metabolism in Non-Nodulated and Nodulated Soybean Plants Related to Ureide Synthesis
Soybean plants can fix atmospheric N2 in the root nodule, a symbiotic organ with rhizobia. The primary forms of N transported from N2 fixation are ureides, allantoate, and allantoin, supplemented with asparagine.
