Abstract:Both magnesium (Mg) and nitrogen (N) play many important roles in plant
physiological and biochemical processes. Plants usually exhibit low
nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUE) under Mg deficiency conditions,
but the mechanisms by which Mg regulates NUE are not well understood.
Herein, we investigated biomass, nutrient uptake, sorbitol and sucrose
transport, and relative gene expression in apple seedlings under various
concentrations of Mg and N treatments in hydroponic cultures. We first
observed that low Mg… Show more
