In order to test the regulation effect of carboxymethyl chitosan on rice nitrogen metabolism,Xiangwanxian 6 and Xiangwanxian 9 were used as samples.Under the treatment of carboxymethyl chitosan(concentration of 0.2% water solution),the nitrate reductase,glutamine transversase,gl-utamine synthetase and protease activities of top 3 rice leaves at the heading stage were increased obrionsly,and the enhancement on the activities of glutamine transversase and protease continues till the late .The amount of soluble protein in leaf and the amount of total nitrogen and protein nitrogen in rice grain we...
