Degradation of proteins by enzymes exuded by Allium porrum roots–A potentially important strategy for acquiring organic nitrogen by plants

Nitrogen is one of the crucial elements that regulate plant growth and development. It is well-established that plants can acquire nitrogen from soil in the form of low-molecular-mass compounds, namely nitrate and ammonium, but also as amino acids. Nevertheless, nitrogen in the soil occurs mainly as...
