Effect of low water potential of the culture medium on mesocotyl elongation of rice seedlings
1980
Terao, Hiroyuki | Inouye, Jun
At a soil water content of water potential of ca. −3.1 to −6.2 bars, mesocotyl elongation of both indica and japonica type rice was extremely stimulated. It was also stimulated in an aseptic culture medium (2.5–4.0% mannitol, water potential ca. −3.5 to −5.5 bars). The stimulation of the mesocotyl may be caused by cell multiplication.
