Wetland plants exhibit high tolerance to flooding because of their ability to form air channels called lysigenous aerenchyma, which help transfer gases to the submerged roots. Aside from withstanding flooding, these air channels also help plants during drought and nutrient deficiency. To understand the mechanism behind the formation of these air channels, the research team conducted the study which could provide insights on how to develop more resilient crops.
