Flooding tolerance in halophytes [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2008 SummaryFlooding is a common environmental variable with salinity. Submerged organs can suffer from O2deprivation and the resulting energy deficits can compromise ion transport processes essential for salinity tolerance. Tolerance of soil waterlogging in halophytes, as in glycophytes, is often associated with the production of adventitious roots ...
