Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Ethanol overcame dehusking-related germination inhibition in japonica rice.
- Intervention effect At 30 days after anthesis, japonica seed germination frequently reached 100% at 3–5% ethanol.
- Intervention effect At 60 days after anthesis, japonica seed germination frequently reached 100% at 1–4.5% ethanol.
- Intervention effect Higher ethanol concentrations reduced japonica germination.
- Intervention effect Ethanol at 0.5 and 1% slightly inhibited dehusked indica rice germination.
- Intervention effect At all harvests, indica germination was greatest at 3% ethanol.
- Intervention effect At 5–6% ethanol, indica germination fell to zero.
- Observation Ethanol inhibited, left unchanged, or minimally stimulated germination of intact japonica and indica seeds across tested concentrations.
- Intervention effect Oxygen absence stimulated dehusked japonica germination.
- Intervention effect Ethanol inhibited anaerobic germination of dehusked japonica rice.
- Intervention effect Ethanol had little or no effect on the failure of dehusked indica seeds to germinate anaerobically.
