Plants and flooding stress
Floods early this year in Queensland, Australia, received a great deal of attention in the media because they affected a land area the size of Germany and France combined. However, on a world scale this is not exceptional as in some years the land area exposed to flooding is > 17 million km, equal to twice the size of the USA. These dramatic floods occur in all continents of our planet and resu...
متن کاملResponse and adaptation by plants to flooding stress.
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. Flooding stress is also a strong driver of adaptive evolution. This has resulted in a wide range of biochemical, molecular and morphological adaptations that sanction growth and reproductive success under episodi...
متن کاملFlooding Stress on Plants: Anatomical, Morphological and Physiological Responses
Flooding is a natural disturbance affecting crop and forage production worldwide due to the detrimental effects that it provokes on most terrestrial plants (Bailey-Serres & Voesenek, 2008; Colmer & Vosenek, 2009). Over the last years, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (http://www.ippc.ch) has informed that man-induced world climate change will increase the frequency of precipitation...
متن کاملPhysiological adaptation of crop plants to flooding stress.
When crop plants are subjected to soil waterlogging, or an anaerobic condition, their root and shoot systems respond differently. A variety of morphological and anatomical alterations develop in the root system. Reduction of the root respiration rate has been reported in both flooding-tolerant and intolerant species. Besides alcoholic fermentation, several diverse fermentative bypasses take pla...
متن کاملFlooding stress: acclimations and genetic diversity.
Flooding is an environmental stress for many natural and man-made ecosystems worldwide. Genetic diversity in the plant response to flooding includes alterations in architecture, metabolism, and elongation growth associated with a low O(2) escape strategy and an antithetical quiescence scheme that allows endurance of prolonged submergence. Flooding is frequently accompanied with a reduction of c...
