- Hypoxia likely killed thousands of fish on Anakapalli coast, says CMFRI study
A CMFRI study attributes the death of approximately 11 tonnes of fish, primarily pony fish, along a 1,500-metre stretch in Boyapadu to hypoxia caused by an algal bloom and oxygen depletion on the Anakapalli coast.
- H 2 O 2 repurposes plant O 2 sensing to regulate post-hypoxia responses
Experiments in Arabidopsis reveal that group VII ethylene response factors enable plants to adapt to hypoxia and reoxygenation by repurposing oxygen sensing mechanisms. This discovery highlights how plants in flood-prone environments respond to submergence and subsequent desubmergence.
