Whole-Plant Regulation -- Oxygen Transport in Waterlogged Plants -- Waterlogging and Plant Nutrient Uptake -- Strategies for Adaptation to Waterlogging and Hypoxia in Nitrogen Fixing Nodules of Legumes -- Oxygen Transport in the Sapwood of Trees -- Intracellular Signalling -- pH Signaling During Anoxia -- Programmed Cell Death and Aerenchyma Formation Under Hypoxia -- Oxygen Deprivation, Metabolic Adaptations and Oxidative Stress -- Membrane Transporters in Waterlogging Tolerance -- Root Water Transport Under Waterlogged Conditions and the Roles of Aquaporins -- Root Oxygen Deprivation and Leaf Biochemistry in Trees -- Membrane Transporters and Waterlogging Tolerance -- Ion Transport in Aquatic Plants -- Agronomical and Environmental Aspects -- Genetic Variability and Determinism of Adaptation of Plants to Soil Waterlogging -- Improvement of Plant Waterlogging Tolerance.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: Waterlogging is a major problem for plant cultivation in many regions of the world. This book combines both academic and practical aspects of this topic. Based on recent progress in cell and molecular biology, various facets of waterlogging signalling and tolerance are addressed, starting from the molecular level, through membrane transport, cells and plant organs, up to the whole organism. Leading scientists contribute 13 chapters grouped into the following main parts: whole-plant regulation, intracellular signalling, membrane transporters in waterlogging tolerance and agronomical and environmental aspects. This work offers a universal handbook for any researcher or agronomist interested in the impact of waterlogging in plants.
