Fig. 1

Thymol attenuated ammonium-induced growth inhibition in rice seedlings. (A-B) Changes in the length of root and shoot after NH4Cl exposure for 72 h. (C-D) Changes in the length of root and shoot after NH4Cl (20 mM) exposure with or without thymol (20 μM) for 72 h. (E-F) Time-dependent changes in root length and shoot length after NH4Cl (20 mM) exposure with or without thymol (20 μM) up to 72 h. The black arrow in (E-F) indicates that the seedlings of NH4Cl + Thymol treatment begin to grow significantly longer that NH4Cl treatment. Different lowercase letters indicate that the mean values of ten replicates are significantly different among different treatments (P < 0.05, ANOVA, LSD)
