Fig. 1

Exogenous application of melatonin promotes growth parameters in rice plants under Pb stress. (A, B) Display root and shoot lengths of rice plants grown in petri dishes after 10 days of Pb and melatonin treatment, respectively. (C, D) Illustrate root and shoot lengths after 5 weeks of exposure to Pb and melatonin, plants grown in pots. (E) Shows plant height at the final stage of development. (F, G, H) Present panicle length, number of seeds per panicle, and seed weight of 100 grains, respectively. Data represented in the graphs are means of three independent biological replicates ± SD. Asterisks on the bars indicate significant differences using Bonferroni post hoc tests.
