Storage product accumulation in seeds of major crop species is limited by their low internal
oxygen concentration. Adjustment of energy and storage metabolism to oxygen deficiency …

Recent applications of oxygen‐sensitive microsensors have demonstrated steep oxygen
gradients in developing seeds of various crops. Here, we present an overview on oxygen …

Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as an important signal molecule in plants, having myriad
roles in plant development. In addition, NO also orchestrates both biotic and abiotic stress …

Plant tissues, particularly roots, can be subjected to periods of hypoxia due to environmental
circumstances. Plants have developed various adaptations in response to hypoxic stress …

Plants often experience low-oxygen conditions, not only as an environmental stress
condition but also as part of their normal developmental process. Oxygen deficiency …

Oxygen can fall to low concentrations within plant tissues, either because of environmental
factors that decrease the external oxygen concentration or because the movement of oxygen …

Plants produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) when exposed to low oxygen (O2). Much
experimental evidence has demonstrated the existence of an oxidative burst when there is …

Plants, under natural or experimental conditions, can be subject to a range of O2
concentrations from normal (normoxia) through deficient (hypoxia) to total absence (anoxia) …

Molecular oxygen (O 2) is a basic requirement of life for many organisms, including plants.
As a terminal electron acceptor, during mitochondrial respiration, O 2 governs both the …
