Effects of nitrogen deficiency on grain quality and functional properties of protein hydrolysates in a low-nitrogen-tolerant rice mutant (MT2)

Examines how low nitrogen conditions change rice grain composition and protein hydrolysate functions, framing nutrient management as a potential nutraceutical lever.
