Abstract excerpt
Anaerobic tolerant null (ATN) is a recessive factor that allows alcohol dehydrogenase-1 (ADH1) null individuals of Zea mays L. to survive 24 h of anaerobic conditions. ADH1 null lines that do not possess this factor survive only a few hours of anoxia. We studied ADH activity levels in protein extracts from the primary root tissue of ATN. ADH levels were similar in ATN and other ADH1 null lines, suggesting that...
