How plants uptake and assimilate nitrogen?

Summary/Abstract: Nitrogen availability in the soil is one of the main factors limiting plant growth and development. Nitrogen builds such important for cell functioning compounds as nucleic acids, proteins and chlorophyll. Plants uptake nitrogen from the soil solution mainly in the nitrate and ammonium form, but also as urea, amino acids and even small oligopeptides. Moreover, some species during the evolution adapted to growth in the low nitrogen concentration. These are plants creating symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and carnivorous plants. This paper summarizes the knowledge about nitrogen uptake and assimilation by plants.
