| Abstract | Nitrogen is a crucial macronutrient needed in the greatest amount of all mineral elements required by plants. Development of crop varieties with high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is imperative for sustainable agriculture. Understanding how plant genes respond to different nitrogen conditions is essential for formulating approaches, for manipulating genes, for improving NUE. In the present study we analyzed the activity of three different enzymes involved in nitrogen assimilation viz., GS, GOGAT and GDH along with physiological parameters like chlorophyll variable yield (Fv/Fmax), photosynthesis rate and total chlorophyll content at four different growth stages of wheat plant development under different nitrogen treatments. For this study two different wheat varieties UP-2644 and Raj-4097 having high and low protein content, respectively in the grains were chosen. Gene expression profile of a Dof transcription factor (TaDof1 of wheat) was also included in the study to assess its role in nitrogen metabolism. Densitometry analysis at S$_{2}$ and S$_{3}$ stage of wheat spikes of both the wheat varieties grown at different nitrogen treatments showed that TaDof1 expression was up-regulated in low nitrogen treatment. In S$_{3}$ stage, in high protein content wheat variety UP-2644, TaDof1 expression was elevated in low and normal nitrogen treatment as compared to high nitrogen treatment. The gene expression profile of Dof 1 was found to coincide with the enzyme activities of GS, GOGAT at the S$_{3}$ stage. The activities of these enzymes were prolonged in the high protein content variety. Since, Dof transcription factor(s) have been previously reported to control the expression of genes involved nitrogen assimilation i.e., GS and GOGAT and may be the elevated expression of Dof 1 at the grain filling stage over expresses the GS and GOGAT genes thereby prolonging their activities. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
