The influence of field climate on nitrate reductase activity (NR) and development was studied in six oat varieties. Of the monitored environmental factors, only temperature had a significant influence; a temperature increase accelerated plant development and increased NR. It was found that a measure of NR activity as early as the coleoptile stage of development indicated optimal environmental conditions for reduction of nitrate nitrogen in a given genotype.Key words: Nitrate reductase activity, development, climate, oat
