Figure 1From: A systems-wide comparison of red rice (Oryza longistaminata) tissues identifies rhizome specific genes and proteins that are targets for cultivated rice improvementRed rice ( Oryza longistaminata ) plant and rhizome. (a) Plants (left) with strong rhizomes grow well in the greenhouse. The rhizome apical tips and the elongation zones of the rhizomes (right) were harvested for RNA, protein and metabolite isolation. (b) The anatomy of a cross section of the rhizome node. (c) A cross section of the rhizome internode.Back to article page
