Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation The 28 rice genotypes varied greatly in cumulative root length, surface area and mean diameter.
- Observation The 28 rice genotypes varied greatly in root volume.
- Intervention effect Under rainfed conditions, rice genotype DT-122 retained longer root length, surface area and volume.
- Intervention effect Under rainfed conditions, DT-122 retained preserved cortical cells and aerenchyma structure.
- Intervention effect Genotype DT-127 had impaired cortical cells under rainfed conditions.
- Intervention effect Genotype DT-127 generated less aerenchyma under rainfed conditions.
- Mechanism The authors suggest DT-122 uses a mixture of anatomical stability and wide soil exploration as its adaptive pattern.
- Observation DT-127 seems to be more adaptable to irrigated areas.
- Mechanism Aerenchyma, although it promotes aeration and support in flooded soils, can impair root functionality during droughts, a trade-off in drought tolerance.
- Recommendation DT-122 is recommended as a potential candidate for upland rice breeding.
