To find out the basic data for the possibility of agricultural utilization for GSA(Glutamine Synthetase Activity), the effect of nitrogen on the GSA in wheat leaf discs, the variation of GSA after light treatment and the comparative activity of GS during preservation were studied. The result of this study suggested that GSA could play an important and direct regulatory role in the nitrogen assimilation by wheat. During the growth stage of wheat its integral activity was found to closely match the organic nitrogen content. GS may therefore be the rate limiting enzyme in inorganic N assimilation. Moreover, integral GSA was closely correlated with grain yield and grain nitrogen. GSA could be suitable to utilize as a parameter for super type selection anti an indicator for optimum nitrogen fertilization. Throughout the experiment, the contents of NO₃- were increased by N fertilization so that the NO₃- content was not attributable to change in the level of GSA. At investigation during dark-light transition of culture, no change in the level of GSA was observed until after 8-14 hours in the light treatment. And the level of GSA in wheat leaf discs during preservation at refrigerated storage (-20℃) was stable until 12 weeks, when its leaf discs were sampled with liquid nitrogen.
