Tolerance determination of rice seedlings under submergence by pretreatment with an ethylene precursor. a The phenotypes of 8-day-old TK9 rice seedlings treated under Nor, Sub, and Pre ACC + Sub for 2 days and then subjected to submergence for 10 days and subsequent recovery for 10 days. Bar = 1 cm. The photograph exhibits the results in three independent seedlings. b The survival rate of TK9 rice seedlings treated under Nor, Sub, and Pre ACC + Sub for 2 days and then subjected to submergence for 4, 6, 8, and 10 days followed by 10-day recovery. The data represent the average values ± SD from 30 seedlings of each treatment obtained from three biologically independent experiments. The values with different letters are significantly different at P < 0.05, according to one-way ANOVA with post hoc Duncan’s test
