| Abstract | The differences in osmotic stress tolerance and morphological characteristics of the root system of stress-tolerant and stress-sensitive rice cultivars were clarified by examining genetic variation. Fifty-four Rice Diversity Research Set cultivars, and Azucena, IRAT109, Dular (droughttolerant), IR64 (drought-sensitive), and IR28 (salt-sensitive) were used. Rice seedlings were cultivated for 14 days by water culture (control). Polyethylene glycol 6000 was dissolved in the culture medium as osmotic stress treatment on day 7 to adjust the water potential to –0.42 MPa (stress treatment). The stress treatment to control ratio (S/C ratio) was calculated to evaluate the degree of stress tolerance. The dry-weight S/C ratio in the shoot showed a significant varietal difference from 0.874 to 0.376 and that in the root from 0.931 to 0.342, and root, respectively, and these values were significantly correlated. Five osmotic stress-tolerant and 5 stress-sensitive cultivars were selected, and their root-system morphology was investigated in detail. The number of the L-type lateral roots, which were longer and thicker, increased 1.5 – 3.6 times that of the control with osmotic stress treatment in the tolerant cultivar group. It slightly decreased 0.8 – 0.9 times that of the control with osmotic stress in the sensitive cultivar group. The number of crown roots and S-type lateral roots, which were finer and shorter, decreased with stress in both cultivar groups; however, this decrease was significantly lower in the tolerant cultivar group. Thus it is suggested that the maintenance of root-system development, especially L-type lateral roots under osmotic stress, involves genetic variation in the genes responsible for the dry matter production. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
