Engineering nitrogen use efficiency with alanine aminotransferase
Canadian Journal of Botany, 2007 Nitrogen (N) is the most important factor limiting crop productivity worldwide. The ability of plants to acquire N from applied fertilizers is one of the critical steps limiting the efficient use of nitrogen. To improve N use efficiency, genetically modified plants that overexpress alanine aminotransferase (AlaAT) were engineered by introducing a ...

Advances in barley breeding for improving nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]
, 2022 Crop breeding for high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) or tolerance to low nitrogen fertilization is thought to be an ideal solution to reduce the cost, carbon footprint, and other environmental problems caused by the excess use of nitrogen fertilizers. As

Regional differences in nitrogen balance and nitrogen use efficiency in the rice–livestock system of Uruguay [PDF]
, 2023 The reintegration of crops with livestock systems is proposed as a way of improving the environmental impacts of food production globally, particularly the impact involving nitrogen (N).

Efficient use of nitrogen in agriculture [PDF]
Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 2018 In the lyrics of one of their most well-known songs, the British rock band Dire Straits wrote “we have just one world, but we live in different ones”. This can also be said about the Nitrogen (N) world, where deficit of reactive N is limiting food production in many areas, still causing hunger today in the developing world, while excess of reactive N ...

Exploiting genetic variation in nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]
, 2019 Cereals are the most important sources of calories and nutrition for the human population, and are an essential animal feed. Food security depends on adequate production and demands are predicted to rise as the global population rises.
