title: Metabolism of glycine in roots of wheat and rice seedlings.
abstract: Wheat and rice roots have been shown to decarboxylate both the carbon atoms of glycine. Cold formate and serine significantly depressed (14)CO(2) evolution from (2-(14)CO) glycine. It is therefore likely that C(1)-tetrahydrofolate pool is involved in 2-C-glycine metabolism.
