The phrase "a waterlogging" is not correct in written English.
The term "waterlogging" is typically used as an uncountable noun, so it should not be preceded by an article like "a."
Example: "The heavy rains caused waterlogging in the fields, making it difficult for farmers to plant their crops."
Alternatives: "water accumulation" or "flooding".
As a consequence, waterlogging and salinity now are serious threats to irrigated agriculture of the 16.7 million hectare in the Indus Basin; about 2 million hectare is waterlogged, and 6 million hectare is salt-affected (Nijland et al. 2005).
In another study by Zou et al. [ 22], genome-wide gene expression changes were identified under waterlogging stress in ZS9, a waterlogging-tolerant variety of B. napus.
A combination of waterlogging and high temperature induced larger amounts of H2O2 than individual stresses in both cultivars.
From an agronomic point of view, CIAT 6013 shows promise for use in zones with a risk of waterlogging events.
To identify genes induced at the late stage after waterlogging, a forward subtractive cDNA library was constructed.
However, the response of a crop to waterlogging depends on the timing (developmental stage of the plant when stress was imposed), duration (number of days) and genotypic variation in waterlogging tolerance (Setter and Waters 2003).
Expression analysis revealed that in roots only the transcript from GmAlaAT subfamily A increased during waterlogging, and it declined to levels below the initial value during the recovery treatment.
Therefore, an experiment was performed to analyse changes of the alanine content, the activity of AlaAT and the changes in transcript abundance of the GmAlaAT homologues during and after a 3-day waterlogging treatment.
Studies on vertisols in India showed that yields were lower near the bunds, both upslope and down, as a result of waterlogging (ICRISAT 1976).
We did not find an effect of waterlogging on shoot and root mass in our experiment.
