Response of multigene rice transgenics to heat stress. Two days-old germinated seedlings were subjected to heat stress for three h and then kept at room temperature for eight days. (A) Photograph showing the rice transgenics seedling growth response upon exposure to the heat stress. (B) Percent reduction in seedling growth over control, (C) Percent reduction in protein content over control. Error bars indicate the standard error of three replication, and the asterisk (*) indicates the significance at P=0.05.
