From: Nitrogen physiology of contrasting genotypes of Chenopodium quinoa Willd. (Amaranthaceae)
Expression levels of NH4+ reassimilation-related genes in leaves of three C. quinoa genotypes growing under different N supplies. Expression levels of (a) Nitrate Reductase (CqNR), (b) Glutamine synthetase 2 (CqGS2), (c) Argininosuccinate synthase 1 (CqASS1), (d) AMT1 ammonium transporter (CqAMT1.1) were detected by quantitative PCR. Relative expression in Faro HN was used as reference. CqHK1 was used as housekeeping. Bars show Mean values ± SE (n = 3). Letters indicate significant differences at a P < 0.05 in gene expression levels among genotypes and treatments (P < 0.05) using two-way ANOVA.
