Summary
Application of an inhibitor of gibberellin biosynthesis, S-327D, inhibited elongation of internode in floating rice under submergence. The amount of endogenous gibberellin decreased corresponding with the increasing dose of the inhibitor. However, no direct correlation was detected between the total length of elongated internode under submergence and the endogenous gibberellin content among F2 plants, obtained from a cross between non floating rice and floating rice, which had different total lengths of elongated internodes.
