Characterization of phenotypic traits of rice grains and embryos of HC and giant embryo mutants. a-i Evalucation of various seed characters. Brown rice length (a), width (b), and LWR (c); Embryo length (EL) (d); Thousand-grain weight (TGW) (e); Endosperm weight (ENW, 1000 seeds) (f); Embryo weight (EMW, 1000 seeds) (g); GABA content of EER (h); Size of scutellar parenchyma cells (i). j-q Longitudinal sections of embryo at 20 days after pollination (DAP): wild type (j and n), le (k and o), ge (l and p), and ges (m and q). CP, coleoptiles; RD, radicle; ST, scutellum (n-q). The means followed by lowercase letters indicate statistically significant difference (p < 0.05, ANOVA) according to Duncan test. Error bars indicate ± s.d. of replicates. Scale bars = 0.5 mm (j-m), Scale bar = 50 μm (n-q)
