Mangrove root: adaptations and ecological importance (2016, background): “To prevent O2 loss from aerenchyma of the root while transporting it to aerial parts of plant, mangrove plants have developed an impermeable layer within the exodermis to mitigate ROL (a barrier to ROL) (Visser et al. 2000; Vasellati et al. 2001; Colmer et al. 2006).”
An overview of plant responses to soil waterlogging (2008, background): “In fact, the proportion of aerenchyma is generally considered as a key discriminating factor between wetland and non-wetland plants (Vasellati et al. 2001).”
The mysterious root length (2006, background): “The lower SRL may have been a result of the greater diameter of these roots compared to non-aerechymatous roots, but a decreased SRL of aerenchymatous roots may also be caused by the increased sclerenchyma which is necessary to prevent roots from collapsing, as found by Vasellati et al. (2001) for”
