Abstract
Echinochloa crus-galli, a problem weed in rice fields, has the rare ability to germinate and to grow in a totally oxygen-free environment. After 7 days growth in the light or dark under N2, E. crus-galli var. oryzicola produces a 2- to 3-centimeter nonpigmented shoot.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
