Endosperm cell size reduction caused by osmotic adjustment during nighttime warming in rice

Abstract High night temperature (HNT) often reduces yield in field crops. In rice, HNT during the ripening stage diminishes endosperm cell size, resulting in a considerable reduction in final kernel weight; however, little is known about the underlying mechanisms at cell level. In this study, we per...
