A Role for Auxin in Ethylene-Dependent Inducible Aerenchyma Formation in Rice Roots

A Role for Auxin in Ethylene-Dependent Inducible Aerenchyma Formation in Rice Roots

Internal oxygen diffusion from shoot to root tips is enhanced by the formation of aerenchyma (gas space) in waterlogged soils. Lysigenous aerenchyma is created by programmed cell death and subsequent lysis of the root cortical cells. Rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i>) forms aerenchyma constituti...
