Waterlogging is a common abiotic stress in both natural and agricultural systems, and it primarily affects plant growth by the slow oxygen diffusion in water. To sustain root function in the hypoxic environment, a key adaptation for waterlogging tolerant plants is the formation of adventitious roots (ARs). We found that cucumber waterlogging tolerant line Zaoer-N seedlings adapt to waterlogging...

salinity and flooding are as two very important factors of soil degradation. they often occur together and cancause severe damage to plants. however, plant response to environmental stresses may vary with growth stage atwhich exposure occurs. a pot study was conducted in 2005-2006 in northern aq qala (northern iran) to studycombine effects of waterlogging and soil salinity at different growth s...

¬¬¬one of the most important limitations for selection of second crop in paddy fields in guilan is waterlogging in the second half of the year. for an evaluation of waterlogging effect (in adequate drainage) on canola yield, a lysimeter study was conducted implementing -10,-5,0 and +5 cm water level for 2,5,7 and 10 day durations at 3 plant growing stages namely: emergence, beginning of floweri...

It is significant to monitor crop waterlogging range timely and correctly for later field management, agricultural insurance and yield prediction. The change regularity of paddy injured growth was analyzed and the sensitive parameters of growth stress were screened. The model of identifying the paddy waterlogging range based on change vector analysis (CVA) was developed by using the HJ-1/2 CCD ...

Sugarcane is an important tropical cash crop meeting 75% of world sugar demand and it is fast becoming an energy crop for the production of bio-fuel ethanol. A considerable area under sugarcane is prone to waterlogging which adversely affects both cane productivity and quality. In an effort to elucidate the genes underlying plant responses to waterlogging, a subtractive cDNA library was prepare...

Quercus robur L. and Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl. are sympatric oak species with different ecological requirements. Quercus robur is more tolerant to waterlogging than Q. petraea. This ecological divergence may play a role in the maintenance of the two species despite the absence of an insurmountable reproductive barrier between them. We predicted that the genetic architecture of traits relat...

Waterlogging is an important abiotic stress constraint that causes significant yield losses in maize grown throughout south and south-east Asia due to erratic rainfall patterns. The most economic option to offset the damage caused by waterlogging is to genetically incorporate tolerance in cultivars that are grown widely in the target agro-ecologies. We assessed the genetic variation in a popula...

the effects of waterlogging, sewage sludge and animal manure on the concentrations of dtpa extractable copper, iron, manganese and zinc were investigated in two different types of soil. a factorial experiment based upon a completely randomized design of two replications containing duration of waterlogging at six levels (0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 30 days), source of organic fertilizer at three levels (con...
