Update on Metabolism

Anaerobic Metabolism in Plants 1

Robert A. Kennedy, Mary E. Rumpho and Theodore C. Fox

Department of Botany and the Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742

Exposure to oxygen deficits is more widespread in biological systems than is commonly believed. Until recently, the general perception of anaerobic metabolism was often limited to the induction of alcoholic or lactic acid fermentation as the sole biochemical response to hypoxia/anoxia. Developments in the physiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology of anaerobic responses in invertebrates, lower plants, and higher plants have demonstrated that, depending upon the species, anaerobic metabolism may encompass much more than simple glycolytic metabolism. Here, recent progress in elucidating the mechanism(s) determining tolerance versus intolerance to anaerobic environments in higher plants is discussed, drawing most heavily on experimental systems using seeds or seedlings.
