Other claims from this paper (16)
- Observation Phalaris arundinacea had the most flooding tolerant attributes.
- Intervention effect Flooding did not limit root respiration oxygen in Phalaris arundinacea.
- Intervention effect Flooding increased photosynthesis and stomatal conductance in Zea mays.
- Intervention effect Flooding increased photosynthesis and stomatal conductance in Vicia faba.
- Observation Zea mays showed oxygen stress after three days of flooding.
- Observation Vicia faba showed oxygen stress after three days of flooding.
- Observation Phaseolus vulgaris was among the most affected flooding sensitive species.
- Observation Pisum sativum was among the most affected flooding sensitive species.
- Observation Flooded Phaseolus vulgaris roots experienced oxygen stress.
- Observation Flooded Pisum sativum roots experienced oxygen stress.
- Intervention effect Flooding decreased photosynthesis and stomatal conductance in Phaseolus vulgaris.
- Intervention effect Flooding decreased photosynthesis and stomatal conductance in Pisum sativum.
- Intervention effect Flooding increased photoprotection in Phaseolus vulgaris.
- Mechanism Maintaining photosynthesis and stomatal conductance while avoiding root oxygen shortage is proposed to confer flooding tolerance.
- Association Allocation of light energy to photochemistry appeared related to flooding tolerance.
- Mechanism The authors conclude flooding tolerance mainly depends on maintaining respiration in affected tissues.
