Nitrate reductase activity in the leaves of young plants of cucumber.Cucumis sativus L. cv. Bílská, as determined bothin vitro andin vivo and expressed in terms of fresh weight, gradually changes in dependence on the ontogenetic development of the plants, reaching its maximum before full expansion of the leaves.
