Fig. 3From: Mesocotyl Elongation is Essential for Seedling Emergence Under Deep-Seeding Condition in RiceFrequency distribution of the mesocotyl length (a) and coleoptile length (b) in 98 backcross inbred lines (BILs) derived from Nipponbare/Kasalath at 5 cm soil depth; Arrowheads indicate mean values for Nipponbare and Kasalath. 12 seeds of 98 BILs, Nipponbare and Kasalath were sown at 5 cm soil depth and incubated at alternate temperatures of 30 °C and 26 °C (14 h/10 h). At 14 days after sowing, length were measuredBack to article page
