RNA-Seq, physiological, and biochemical analysis of burley tobacco response to nitrogen deficiency

Abstract To explore the effects of nitrogen deficiency in burley tobacco, two varieties were cultivated and subjected to conditions of sufficient and deficient nitrogen. The natural characteristics of varieties TN90 and TN86 during tobacco cultivation were similar for nitrogen metabolism. Both carbo...
