Denitrification in soil around the bases of corn stalks, determined by the "acetylene blockage technique," exhibited a general trend of decline from June to September. Leaf nitrate reductase activity, determined by an in vivo assay procedure, was low in June and July, and then exhibited a pronounced maximum at the time of tasselling.

SUMMARYThe possibility of using seasonal changes in leaf nitrate reductase activity (NRA) as a reliable and sensitive indicator of plant nitrogen (N) status has been investigated in field-grown cotton. These changes were compared with those in nitrate concentration in petioles and variations in soil-N concentration. We conclude that NRA in the uppermost, fully-expanded sympodial leaves may provide a more convenient, sensitive and reliable indicator of plant-N status than measurements of nitrate concentrations in petioles.
