Inundation that gives rise to soil flooding, or more complete submergence, is the most
common environmental cause of oxygen deprivation for vascular plants. Species differ …

… Blocking ACC formation and thus ethylene production in these roots with A VG prevents
aerenchyma development in hypoxia, an effect that is reversible by applying ACC …

… to some extent with additional CO 2 and more effectively by applying the ethylene action
inhibitor 1‐methylcyclopropene (1‐MCP) to the floodwater or as a pre‐treatment (Jackson and …

Enhanced development of gas-spaces beyond that due to the partial cell separation normally
found in ground parenchymas and their derivatives creates tissue commonly termed “…

Stress on plants imposed by flooding of the soil and deeper submergence constitutes one of
the major abiotic constraints on growth, species' distribution and agricultural productivity. …

It has been estimated that wetlands occupy approximately 6% of the earth’s land surfaces (Maltby
1991). They comprise fresh, brackish and salt-water marshes, inland and coastal …

Research on the mechanisms that underlie plant responses to flooding and the capacity of
some species or cultivars to tolerate flooding is reviewed. Effects of flooding on the roots, the …

The sigma-1 receptor is widely distributed in the central nervous system and periphery.
Originally mischaracterized as an opioid receptor, the sigma-1 receptor binds a vast number of …

The roots and stem base of intact, 10 day old maize (Zea mays L. cv. LG11) plants, grown in
nutrient solution, were continuously aerated either with ethylene (5 μl l -1 ) in air or with air …

The sigma receptor is a novel protein that mediates the modulation of ion channels by
psychotropic drugs through a unique transduction mechanism depending neither on G proteins …
