Ammonia emission from rice leaves in relation to photorespiration and genotypic differences in glutamine synthetase activity

• Background and Aims Rice (Oryza sativa) plants lose significant amounts of volatile NH₃ from their leaves, but it has not been shown that this is a consequence of photorespiration. Involvement of photorespiration in NH₃ emission and the role of glutamine synthetase (GS) on NH₃ recycling were inves...
