Abstract: | Unlike germination of wheat (Triticum aestivum), millet (Eleucinecoracana), and sorghum (Sorghum caudatum), that of Echinochloaoryzoides (barnyard grass) and Oryza satwa (rice) was not inhibitedby poorly aerated solutions with 11 k Pa oxygen (equilibriumpartial pressure) or less In the dark, seedling shoots of riceincluded a coleoptile, and in Echinochloa, a mesocotyl alsoGrowth in fresh and dry weight of shoots was strongly depressedby poorly aerated solutions in both rice and Echinochloa butthe effects on extension differed in the two species in rice,coleoptile extension was promoted by solutions partly depletedof oxygen, and also by the absence of oxygen The stimulationin partly de-oxygenated solutions resulted from the combinedpromoting effects of small oxygen partial pressures, carbondioxide, ethylene and buoyant tension in contrast, these treatmentsneither promoted nor inhibited elongation by the Echinochloacoleoptile while severely inhibiting extension of the mesocotyl Overall, poorly aerated solutions lengthened the shoot of riceand shortened it in Echinochloa when compared with those submergedin well-aerated solutions These opposite effects were broughtabout by the same gaseous changes, i e oxygen shortage, elevatedethylene and carbon dioxide The effect on Echinochloa was almostentirely restricted to the mesocotyl, coleoptile extension beingremarkably insensitive to large increases in ethylene and carbondioxide, or to extreme oxygen shortage Seedlings of the twospecies thus have contrasting strategies for survival Stress, submergence, ethylene, oxygen shortage, carbon dioxide, adaptation, anaerobiosis, rice (Oryza sativa L), barnyard grass Echinochloa oryzoides (Ard) Fritseh] |
