New insights into trophic aerenchyma formation strategy in maize (Zea mays L.) organs during sulphate deprivation
Aerenchyma attributes plant tissues that contain enlarged spaces exceeding those commonly found as intracellular spaces. It is known that sulphur (S) deficiency leads to formation of aerenchyma in maize adventitious roots by lysis of cortical cells. Seven-day-old maize plants were grown in a hydrop...
