Oxygen distribution and movement, respiration and nutrient loading in banana roots (Musa spp. L.) subjected to aerated and oxygen-depleted environments
Excessive soil wetness is a common feature where bananas (Musa spp.) evolved. Under O2 deficiency, a property of wet soils, root growth and functions will be influenced by the respiratory demand for O2 in root ti...
