Preliminary responses of some Thai rice cultivars to simulated acid rain stress during seed germination

Abstract: Germination response of nine Thai rice (Oryza sativa) cultivars was investigated under simulated acid rain at pH values of 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5 and a control at pH 6.5 using a split-plot in completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications as main plots and subplots. Germination percentage, seedling characteristics and inhibitory responses were evaluated. Results showed that rice seed germination decreased after exposure to simulated acid rain of pH 2.5, 3.5 and 4.5 compared to the control. Acid rain si… Show more

“…Drought stress in plants induces many physiological and biochemical changes, making the maintenance of osmotic adjustment extremely necessary [19]. In addition, acid rain, another abiotic stress, was shown to cause a decrease in root/shoot length ratio and seed germination in rice [20]. Among all the changes, the most important ones involve enzymes and osmoregulation, which are the main components of the antioxidant defence mechanism.…”
