## Abstract The response of winter wheat to waterlogging at different stages of growth outdoors was studied for 3 years using lysimeters containing undisturbed monoliths of sandy loam and clay soils. The treatments were selected as the most extreme likely to occur in field conditions in Britain, __
Excision and subsequent incubation of the apices (1 cm) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedling roots in simple media severely reduced elongation from 28 ram.(24 h) -1 in intact roots to a maximum of 2 ram. (24 h)-1 in excised roots. The reduction in growth was accompanied by a loss of cell turgot
