Fig. 6

Schematic model for the degradation of asparagine by ASNase2 in rice flag leaves and spikelets. ASNase2 has a role in the reutilization of asparagine in source (flag leaves) and sink (spikelets) organs. Box-shaped panel indicates the proteins in mesophyll cell (a). Round-shaped panels indicate the pools for free amino acids (a and b). Abbreviations: Asn, asparagine; Asp, aspartate; Gln, glutamine and Glu, glutamate
