Waterlogging tolerance of crops: breeding, mechanism of tolerance, molecular approaches, and future prospects

Submergence or flood is one of the major harmful abiotic stresses in the low-lying countries and crop losses due to waterlogging are considerably high. Plant breeding techniques, conventional or genetic engineering, might be an effective and economic way of developing crops to grow successfully in w...
