Variation for Root Aerenchyma Formation in Flooded and Non-Flooded Maize and Teosinte Seedlings (2006, background): “In various studies, two types of aerenchyma have been observed in roots: (1) lysigenous aerenchyma, caused by the selective death of some cortical cells; and (2) schizogenous aerenchyma, formed by cell separation (Evans, 2003).”
Water Flow in the Roots of Crop Species: The Influence of Root Structure, Aquaporin Activity, and Waterlogging (2007, background): “Hypoxia stimulates the development of gas spaces, called lysigenous aerenchyma, through ethylene-induced cell death (reviewed by Evans, 2003).”
Plant root growth, architecture and function (2009, background): “Aerenchyma form either by cell separation (‘schizogenous’ aerenchyma) or by cell death and removal (‘lysigenous’ aerenchyma); more is known about formation of the latter as it occurs in many crop species including barley, rice and wheat (Drew et al. 2000; Evans 2003; Justin and Armstrong 1991).”
Mangrove root: adaptations and ecological importance (2016, background): “The success of mangrove plants growing in intertidal zones is generally ascribed to anatomical adaptations (Youssef and Saenger 1996; Liu et al. 2009; Pi et al. 2009) that facilitate O2 supply to submerged roots (Thomson et al. 1990; Colmer 2003; Evans 2003).”
