Seasonal changes in plant NO3−-N use were investigated by measuring leaf nitrate reductase activity (NRA), leaf N concentration, and leaf expansion in one evergreen woody species (Quercus glaucaThunb.) and two deciduous woody species [Acer palmatumThunb. andZelkova serrata(Thunb.) Makino]. Leaf N concentration was highest at the beginning of leaf expansion and decreased during the expansion process to a steady state at the point of full leaf expansion in all species. The leaf NRA of all species was very low at the beginning of leaf expansion, followed by a rapid increase and subsequent decrease. The highest leaf NRA was observed in the middle of the leaf-expansion period, and the lowest leaf NRA occurred in summer for all species. Significant positive correlations were detected between leaf NRA and leaf expansion rates, while leaf N concentrations were negatively correlated with leaf area. In the evergreenQ. glauca, the N concentration in current buds increased before leaves opened; concurrently, the N concentration in 1-year-old leaves decreased by 25%. Our results show that the leaf-expansion period is the most important period for NO3−-N assimilation by broadleaf tree species, and that decreases in leaf N concentration through the leaf-expansion period are at least partly compensated for by newly assimilated NO3−-N in current leaves.
