- Abstract
The overall aim of the study was to conduct comparative characterization of nitrate reductase (NR) activity in high-mountain plant species from Central Europe on the example of Karkonosze mountains. NR is an enzyme involved in primary nitrogen metabolism in plant cell. We measured NRA in typical vascular plant species from subalpine and alpine belts of the Karkonosze in the context of taxonomic position, and growth form. The measured differences reflected taxonomic position mainly, but partially also ecological preferences.
