Effects of Brassinolide on Mesocotyl, Coleoptile and Leaf Growth in Rice Seedlings

The effect of brassinolide at 10–9M to 10–5M on the growth of rice seedlings was examined in darkness and under the light. After treatment in darkness for one week, 10–7M and 10–5M brassinolide strongly stimulated mesocotyl and coleoptile elongation in all rice cultivars. The treatment with 10–5M br...
