Novel functions of the root barrier to radial oxygen loss – radial diffusion resistance to H2 and water vapour

LL Peralta Ogorek, E Pellegrini, O Pedersen - New Phytologist, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The root barrier to radial O2 loss (ROL) is a trait enabling waterlogging tolerance of plants.
The ROL barrier restricts O2 diffusion to the anoxic soil so that O2 is retained inside root …
