e0“It is conjectured that the crown roots from the coleoptilar node play a large role in the absorption of water and nutrients just after transplanting, and promote the rooting and development of transplanted nursling seedlings through emergence of the first nodal roots.”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Rice nursling root systems contain a seminal root and crown roots from the coleoptilar node.
- Intervention effect Cutting roots 1.5 cm from the base gave growth similar to the control.
- Intervention effect Cutting roots to 0.5 cm significantly reduced growth.
- Intervention effect Excising tips of a seminal and four crown roots barely influenced growth and third-leaf emergence.
- Intervention effect Cutting the bases of a seminal and longest crown root severely reduced growth.
- Association Transplanted seedling growth decreased with remaining total root length.
