Abstract

Sprouted paddy seeds were dried in the kot sun for two to three days. This caused complete wilting of the young plumule and radicle, but the seed on regermination produced new shoots and roots (Fig. 1 & 2). The same thing happened also when the young plumule and radicle were partly or fully scissored or injured, under similar conditions.
