The growth of crops depends heavily on the availability of nitrogen, which is taken up by plants predominantly in the form of nitrate which reduced for most species in the leaves to ammonium to form amino acids and proteins. Humans and animals rely on the protein built by plants. Thus, the use of mineral N fertilizers is essential to feed the world population, but it is also associated with risks such as increased nitrate concentration in the edible plant parts.
