 Several D-amino acids have been found to inhibit plant growth (Forsum et al., 2008),  while some plants can absorb and metabolize or assimilate D-amino acids (Grdes et al., 2011;

 A number of D-Amino acids also constrain the growth of plants (Forsum et al., 2008), while some plants can absorb and metabolize or assimilate D-amino acids (Grdes et al., 2011;
