| Abstract | An in vitro system was established for the characterisation of inorganic nitrogen uptake by sugarcane plantlets of variety NCo376. After multiplication and rooting, plantlets (0.27–0.3 g fresh mass) were placed on N-free medium for 4 days, and then supplied with 2–20 mM N as NO$_{3}$ $^{−}$-N only, NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N only or NO$_{3}$ $^{−}$-N + NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N (as 1:1). With few exceptions, on all the tested N media, the in vitro plants always had a higher V$_{max}$ for NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N (28.69–66.51 μmol g$^{−1}$ h$^{−1}$) than for NO$_{3}$ $^{−}$-N uptake (10.24–30.19 μmol g$^{−1}$ h$^{−1}$) and the K$_{m}$ indicated a higher affinity for NO$_{3}$ $^{−}$-N (0.02–7.38 mM) than for NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N (0.06–9.15 mM). When N was applied as 4 and 20 mM to varieties N12, N19 and N36, the interaction between variety, N form and concentration resulted in differences in the V$_{max}$ and K$_{m}$. The high N-use efficient varieties (N12 and N19), as determined in previous pot and field trials, behaved similarly under all tested conditions and displayed a lower V$_{max}$ and K$_{m}$ than the low N-use efficient ones (NCo376 and N36). Based on this finding, it was suggested that the N-use efficient designation (from pot and field trials) may not be ascribed solely to N uptake. Assessment of the relative preference index (RPI) for NO$_{3}$ $^{−}$-N and NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N uptake revealed that, at present, the RPI has no application in sugarcane due to its preferential uptake of NH$_{4}$ $^{+}$-N. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
