Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Soluble sugar content of rice seedlings rose from 65.1 to 126.3 mg g-1 during the first nine hours of light, then stabilized.
- Intervention effect Other measured physiological indices changed little during the light exposure.
- Intervention effect Root dry weight increased by 120.0% as light exposure increased from 3 to 12 hours.
- Intervention effect Total new root length increased by 60.6% as light exposure increased from 3 to 12 hours.
- Intervention effect New root number increased by 30.3% as light exposure increased from 3 to 12 hours.
- Association Rooting ability was more closely correlated with soluble sugar content than nitrate-nitrogen content.
- Association Pre-rooting soluble sugar content explained 73.6%-75.4% of variation in rooting ability.
- Association Pre-rooting nitrate-nitrogen content explained an additional 7.3%-14.2% of variation in rooting ability.
