Aerenchyma formation in maize roots
Maize (Zea mays L.) is generally considered to be a plant with aerenchyma formation inducible by environmental conditions. In our study, young maize plants, cultivated in various ways in order to minimise the stressing effect of hypoxia, flooding, mechanical impedance or nutrient starvation, were examined for the presence of aerenchyma in their primary

Anaerobics increase resistance to gas transport and microbial activity in flooded soils. This may result in the presence of aerenchyma in the roots of some wetland plants.

Bomb-14C analysis of ecosystem respiration reveals that peatland vegetation facilitates release of old carbon [PDF]
The largest terrestrial-to-atmosphere carbon flux is respired CO<sub>2</sub>. However, the partitioning of soil and plant sources, understanding of contributory mechanisms, and their response to climate change are uncertain.

Spatial development of transport structures in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) fruit [PDF]
The void network and vascular system are important pathways for the transport of gases, water and solutes in apple fruit (Malus x domestica Borkh). Here we used X-ray micro-tomography at various spatial resolutions to investigate the growth of these ...

Early-season growth responses of corn hybrids and inbred lines to a commercial seed treatment [PDF]
Annual rainfall in the Midwest has increased up to 10% since the early 20th century, while approximately 20-25% of the global corn crops have experienced yearly drought.

Empowering roots—Some current aspects of root bioenergetics
Roots of higher plants provide the shoot with nutrients and water. In exchange, they receive photosynthates, which serve both as energy source and building blocks for maintenance and growth.

Hypocotyl adventitious root organogenesis differs from lateral root development [PDF]
Wound-induced adventitious root (AR) formation is a requirement for plant survival upon root damage inflicted by pathogen attack, but also during the regeneration of plant stem cuttings for clonal propagation of elite plant varieties.

Aerenchyma formation in roots of maize during sulphate starvation
Young maize ( Zea mays L., Poaceae) plants were grown in a complete, well-oxygenated nutrient solution and then deprived of their external source of sulphate. This treatment induced the formation of aerenchyma in roots. In addition to the effect of sulphate starvation on root anatomy, the presence and location of superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide,

Phellogen (cork cambium) usually produces cork tissue, but when flooded it produces secondary aerenchyma, comprising living cells with non-suberized walls in the stems, roots, and root nodules of some Fabaceae.
