Tóm tắt bài báo:	Background: In anaerobic lowland fields, ammonium (NH4+) is the dominant form of nitrogen (N) taken up by rice plants, however, with the large expansion of water-saving irrigation practices, nitrification is favored during drained periods, leading to an increased availability of nitrate (NO3-). Aim: Since the uptake and assimilation of the two N-sources differ in their demand of photosynthates, leaf gas exchange may be subject to adjustments in response to N-sources, particularly at high evaporative demand, where stomatal conductance (gs) is very sensitive. Methods: Three experiments were carried out to study leaf gas exchange of various lowland rice varieties in response to N-source at low and high vapor pressure deficit (VPD). In the first experiment, seedlings of 12 rice varieties were grown at high VPD for three weeks. From this, four rice varieties differing in gs and CO2 assimilation rate (A) were selected and grown for two weeks at low VPD and after that, they were shifted to high VPD for one week whereas in the third experiment the same varieties were grown separately at low and high VPD conditions for two weeks. In all three experiments, plants were grown hydroponically in nutrient solution with N-sources as sole NH4+ or NO3-. Results: At high VPD, NO3- nutrition led to a higher gs and A in 4 out of 12 varieties (IR64, BT7, NU838, and Nipponbare) relative to NH4+ nutrition, while no effect was observed at low VPD or after a short-term exposure to high VPD. Further, varieties with a high intrinsic water-use efficiency - WUEi (IR64 and BT7) showed the strongest response to N-source. Higher gs was partially supported by increased root/shoot ratio, but could not be fully explained by the measured parameters. However, higher A in NO3--fed plants did not always result in increased plant dry matter, which is probably related to the higher energy demand for NO3- assimilation. Our results suggest that at high VPD, NO3- nutrition can improve leaf gas exchange in varieties having a high WUEi, provided a sufficient water supply. Conclusions: Therefore, intensified nitrification under water-saving irrigation measures may improve leaf gas exchange and the growth of rice plants under high transpirational demand. However, choice of variety seems crucial since large varietal differences were observed in response to N-source. Further, breeding strategies for genotypes adapted to aerobic soil conditions should consider responses to NO3-, potentially using gas exchange measurements as a screening tool.
