Effects of Nitrogen Application on the Development and Accumulation of Protein Bodies in Developing Rice Seed

Effects of Nitrogen Application on the Development and Accumulation of Protein Bodies in Developing Rice Seed

We examined the nature of protein bodies affected by nitrogen application in developing rice endosperm using scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Protein body type II, Pb-II, was observed at the first week after heading independent of nitrogen application, whereas protein body type I, Pb-...
