Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Dry matter accrual was lower after 6 days of waterlogging, especially in the sensitive population
- Observation Dry matter accrual was similar under drained conditions
- Observation Chlorophyll content of leaves was significantly lower in the sensitive than in the tolerant population
- Observation After 4 days of waterlogging, large starch grains apparently disrupted grana stacks in the sensitive population
- Observation Adventitious roots were visible after 8 days of waterlogging in standard and tolerant populations but not in the sensitive population
- Observation No aerenchyma was detected in root cross sections
- Observation Malic enzyme, malate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase isozymes showed no differences
- Observation Pyruvate decarboxylase isozymes showed no differences
- Observation Alcohol dehydrogenase isozymes varied with duration of waterlogging
- Observation Phosphoglucomutase isozyme forms were distinct between populations
