To investigate short term interaction between recently fixed carbon and assimilated nitrogen, the fates of pulse-fed 13C and continuously-applied 15N in sugar, nitrate, organic acid, amino acid and insoluble compound fractions from detached leaves of 5-weeks old spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. cv. Lead) were followed under four light/NO3− combined treatments. At the termination of a 75 min pulse 13CO2 feeding (defined as 0 h), the total amounts of the 13C recently fixed by detached leaves in the light were slightly higher for N-free and 1 mM NO3− medium than for 4 mM NO3−. In shaded leaves, 13C fixation and 15NO3− uptake, respectively, decreased to 11.2% and 71.3% of the fully illuminated leaves exposed to the same 4 mM NO3− concentration. In the light at 0 h, the incorporation of 13C was mostly into sugars, followed by undefined 13C (total 13C – sum of analyzed sub-fractions). In shaded leaves, the largest incorporation was found in the undefined C, followed by insoluble C and sugars. The uptake of 15NO3− from 0 to 3 h was 128, 665 and 620 μg g−1 DW and the percentages of 15N present as reduced forms were 80, 77 and 41, respectively, in the leaves exposed to, in mM, 1 NO3−, 4 NO3− in the light and 4 NO3− in the shaded condition; thus, shading did a small decrease in uptake but a great decrease in reduction of 15NO3−. Under light treatment, the synthesis of reduced 15N was negatively related to the reduction of 13C sugars from 0 to 3 h, but positively related to amounts of organic acid 13C at 3 h.
