Abstract:Even though lodging seriously affects the growth and development of rice (Oryza sativa L.) little is known about the stem and root microstructural characteristics of lodging resistant and non-lodging resistant rice. In this study, one lodging resistant rice variety lingliangyou238 (R1), and two non-lodging resistant rice varieties, luliangyou996 (S1) and zhuliangyou819 (S2), were used to conduct synchrotronbased X-ray micro-computed tomography. We found that the lodging resistant rice variety R1 had a third in… Show more
