metadata.value: The first studies on plant anaerobiosis started at the Department of Plant Physiology
  at St. Petersburg University in the beginning of the 20th century, but interest
  in this subject became most intensive during the investigations of the
  ecological plant physiology group under the supervision of Prof. T. V. Chirkova.
  Their first step was focused on the mechanisms of transport of gases from the
  aerated aboveground part of the plant to the flooded root system. Further interest
  shifted towards clarifying the biochemistry of respiratory metabolism,
  pathways of reoxidation of the reduced cofactors, and protein and lipid metabolism
  of plants under anoxic conditions. The group’s studies have always
  distinguished the comparative approach, in which the changes taking place in
  plants differing in resistance to oxygen deficiency were analyzed. In many ways,
  this research was pioneering and was recognized throughout the world. For the
  first time the possibility of hydrogen peroxide formation in plants under total
  anoxia was demonstrated. The role of cell membranes in adaptation processes
  was revealed. Pioneering investigations distinguished the features of photosynthesis
  in an oxygen-free environment and the work of an antioxidant system
  under conditions of anoxia and post-anoxic oxidative effects. Now, the plant
  ecophysiology group of the Department of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry
  of St. Petersburg State University concentrates on the mechanisms of anaerobic
  signal transduction and reveals how plant hormones regulate adaptation to
  anoxic and post-anoxic stresses.
