Effect of Ethylene on Root Extension of Cereals

THE extension of root axes of barley is severely inhibited by concentrations of ethylene considerably lower than those which can occur in anaerobic soil 1 ; the sensitivity of this species has now been compared with that of three other temperate cereals and several varieties of rice from Nigeria, to...

Zusammenfassung:	THE extension of root axes of barley is severely inhibited by concentrations of ethylene considerably lower than those which can occur in anaerobic soil 1 ; the sensitivity of this species has now been compared with that of three other temperate cereals and several varieties of rice from Nigeria, together with two dicotyledonous plants known to be particularly susceptible to injury from anaerobic soil conditions.
