Down by the water-Aerenchyma in Devonian and early Carboniferous plants
Aerenchyma is a specialized plant tissue containing enlarged gas spaces formed either by differential growth and cell separation (schizogeny) or by cell death (lysigeny). Today, aerenchyma is formed constitutively in the roots, shoots, and leaves of aquatic plants, and in response to poor soil aeration in wetland plants.

Improving Flooding Tolerance of Crop Plants
Agronomy, 2018 A major problem of climate change is the increasing duration and frequency of heavy rainfall events. This leads to soil flooding that negatively affects plant growth, eventually leading to death of plants if the flooding persists for several days.

Aerenchyma formation in the wetland plant Juncus effusus is independent of ethylene [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2006 Flooded plant roots commonly form aerenchyma, which allows gas diffusion between shoots and roots. The programmed cell death involved in this induced aerenchyma formation is controlled by the plant hormone ethylene, as has been shown for maize (Zea mays).

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.In maize, the bHLH transcription factor ZmbHLH118 directly binds to the promoter of ZmCLCa and inhibits its expression. Tonoplast‐localized ZmCLCa mediates NO3− influx into the vacuole to regulate intracellular NO3− homeostasis, modulating nitrate uptake and metabolism, plant growth, and grain yield.

Root Aerenchyma Development in Spartina Patens in Response to Flooding
, 1989 Root aerenchyma, developed in response to flooding, was measured as specific gravity in previously existing (old) and newly developed (new) roots of Spartina patens in a 25-day greenhouse experiment.

Would rice varieties without root aerenchyma perform better in upland environments? [PDF]
, 2023 Increasing rice production to feed the world in the 21st century remains a critical goal despite water scarcity and climate change. Upland rice requires less water and emits less methane. However, its yield potential has yet to be optimised from a market
