Abstract Two forage grasses, timothy (Phleum pratense L.) and ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) were exposed to flooding, and activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and their isozyme profiles were determined. The flooding stress increased ADH activities in both species. This increase was 2-times greater in timothy than in ryegrass. Only one ADH isozyme was found in non-flooded seedlings of both species, whereas two and four bands were identified in ryegrass and timothy seedlings, respectively, under flooding stress.
