Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the trnasverse sections of rice seed. Under normal conditions, amyloplasts are very robust and have a uniform shape. However, in high-temperature conditions, cracks occur between amyloplasts, and the shape changes to a round shape. This phenomenon occurs in both high-temperature tolerance lines and susceptible lines. However, high-temperature susceptible lines result in smaller amyloplast fragments. High-temperature-tolerant line; Nagdong, CNDH22, CNDH71, and CNDH75; high-temperature-susceptible line; Cheongcheong, CNDH11, CNDH48, and CNDH109
