- Intervention effect Chikuzen and Topas growth rates fell under de-oxygenated stagnant agar nutrient solution.
- Association Older seedlings were more sensitive to stagnant agar in biomass accumulation than younger seedlings.
- Intervention effect Hypoxia pretreatment did not change final lateral or adventitious root number or length.
- Observation Chikuzen had greatest radial oxygen loss at the root base with a strong surrounding oxygen sink.
- Observation Chikuzen lateral roots had low stele oxygen and somewhat higher cortex oxygen.
- Mechanism Lack of aerenchyma and low internal oxygen diffusion restrict root growth in anaerobic media and likely contribute to waterlogging sensitivity.
