Fig. 4.

Relationship between PA-P and Zn concentrations in rice cultivars. The same data set as that used in Fig. 1 was used to construct this figure. Data for the nutrient concentrations of the edible portions of rice seeds of 18 rice cultivars were obtained without regard to their specific rachis position. Cultivars located in the red highlighted area are characterized by a low-PA content and a high-Zn content, two properties that are important for increased bioavailability
