Histological analyses of spikelet hull 3 days before heading in Ilpumbyeo, group D, and group J. (a) Cross-section of spikelet hull. Upper: spikelets (scale bar, 3 mm). Low: cross-section of spikelet hull (scale bar, 500um). Dotted line indicates position of cross-section (b) Magnified view of spikelet hull cross-section boxed in a. (c) Comparison of total cell number and mean cell length in the outer glume cell layers of spikelet hull of Ilpumbyeo, group D, and group J. (n = 5 to 8 spikelets). Numbers followed by the same letter on each box are not significantly different at P = 0.05 based on Duncan’s multiple range test.
